Welcome to the real world

Yesterday I revisited the first episode of the first season of "Friends" and saw Rachel cut off her credit cards in order to completely start an independent life, and Monica said 'Welcome to the real world. It sucks. But you will still like it', was moved again.

This sentence kicked off the entire "Friends" series, and the opening of the six protagonists was not brilliant, even a little bad: Ross divorced; Chandler had a boring white-collar job; Joey never made it. Actor dreams; Monica's feelings are deceived; Rachel escapes marriage; Phoebe sings in the subway. But for the next 10 seasons, they used 10 years and stories to bring us joy and hope. All of this confirms what Monica said.

When I get back to work, I will say to myself: Welcome to the real world. It sucks. But you will still like it.
