I've been watching "Grey's Anatomy" since the very beginning. I have experienced pain and heartbreak a little too much along the years. For the past 10 or so years, I have been addicted to this show and all of the characters on it, past and present. As painful as watching this show can be, you begin to learn real life lessons to take into account into your daily lives.

1. Hold on to things that matter to you.

2. If you have a dream, don't give up.

3. Say exactly how you feel.

4. It's okay to be sad sometimes.

5. Everybody needs somebody.

6. You're going to fail sometimes, and that's okay.

7. Chase big things, even if they scare you.

8. Always be the bigger person.

9. Support the ones you love.

10. When life gets tough, dance it out.
