I owe the writers an apology
I watched the finale, like I watched every episode this season, with great anticipation and high expectations. Every Tuesday starting at 7, I would start to get excited about Rizzoli and Isles AND Proof, putting aside my own work to watch both shows. I have had my issues with Proof, with the writing. But, after some deep reflection today and after being reminded of my own evolution and journey towards proof of the occult, I realized that I have been overly harsh on the writers.
I'm a writer. If I put myself in their shoes, if I wear their costumes for a just moment, I realize that they were doing the absolute best job they could for their level of understanding and consciousness. They weren't intentionally trying to write shows with one dimensional characters, they were writing what they thought would be compelling TV based on their understanding of the concept that is indeed unknown territory, they were writing based on what they thought the public would like, and most of all, they were writing to please their bosses. I'm sure each and every writer on staff did the very best they could based on their abilities, knowledge, and experiences. My experiences, understanding, consciousness, and skill sets are different. That doesn't make mine right and theirs wrong. I fully accept that my vibration is different than the masses but that does not make either of us wrong. The writers of Proof wrote a storyline that was congruent with their vision of life . . . and death. They were successful. The masses who share a similar level of consciousness and understanding seemed to love the show and the characters so for that they can be very proud.
I'm woman enough to apologize when I'm wrong. I have been blaming the writers of the show for not writing to my level of consciousness and knowledge. When I realized it was not vibrating at the same level as where my understanding resonated, I should have made the choice to stop watching and either seek something else to entertain me or watch with the full understanding that for the vast majority of people watching that this was groundbreaking and innovative and suspended my critiques of what I perceived as flaws and tried to enjoy the show for what it was.
I enjoyed the finale. There were issues I had with the show based on my level of knowledge and consciousness but I have no need to list them and dissect them one by one. I found the finale to be heartwarming and sweet. I do really love the concept of exploring the afterlife. I do think Jennifer Beals is a wonderful actress. I hope it comes back for a second season. I would like to watch it with a new set of eyes.
We must excel, not just exist.
