Watching Greys Anatomy every Thursday night with was my tradition since it first aired on ABC. The older I got the more drama the show stirred and the more I started to realize the show puts out more than just an addicting plot. Shonda Rhimes is throwing some pretty sentimental life lessons at us. The lessons range from love to the importance of mental health to awareness of Alzheimers. This show brings to surface a lot of hard subjects that would otherwise not be talked about on popular televison. I think that we can all relate to the lessons and quotes that come from all characters and the show as a whole.

When it comes to big decisions Richard taught us that "it's good to be scared. It means you have something to lose".

Derek reminded us that "I'm a human being. I make mistakes. I'm flawed. We all are".

And even Mark gave us one last life lesson on how to deal with love. "I want you to promise me something: If you love someone, you tell 'em. Even if your scared that it'll cause problems, even if your scared that it will burn your life to the ground. You say it, and you say it loud."

Christina broke the internet on how we view our best friends when she told Meredith "You are my person. You will always be my person".

Derek taught us to "overcome the notion that you must be regular. It robs you of the chance to be extraordinary".

We all sat in silence when Meredith dropped the biggest life lesson on us when she said, "You don't have to be tough every minute of the day. It's okay to let down your guard. In fact, there are moments when it's the best thing you could possibly do".

Meredith taught us the connection between feeling love and expressing it while you could. "I think it's important to take the time to tell the people you love how much you love them while they can hear you".

Lastly, and most important this one from Meredith goes out to all my college peers trying to figure out life the best way you can and doubting every decision you have to make. "We spend our whole lives worrying about the future, planning for the future, trying to predict the future. As if figuring it out will somehow cushion the blow. But the future is always changing. The future is the home of our deepest fears and our wildest hopes. But one thing is certain: When it finally reveals itself, the future is never the way we imagined it."
