" Grey's Anatomy" is a television series like many others. For the 12 seasons it's been around, it has provided viewers with great advice and life lessons from each character. Here is a list of the characters and what you can learn from each of them after watching this show.

1. Derek "McDreamy" Shepherd

Be a leader, and do what you love each and every day because life most certainly is short.

2. Meredith Grey

No matter what life throws your way, be a strong individual and never give up.

3. Alex Karev

It doesn't matter what your past consists of or what others think about you. People are going to judge you either way so don't let it get to you, and think about yourself in the way you think. Everything is about the present and how you feel and think about yourself. So live and show people the person you truly are and what you have accomplished along the way.

4. Christina Yang


Follow your goals in life, and be the individual you want to be. Always work your a*s off because no one else is going to do it for you. Never be dependent on others, because they are going to think about themselves before you.

5. Mark Sloan

It's your life, and you can only go through life once so make it one you love and want it to be!

6. Miranda Bailey

Be able to push others through hard times and struggles along with your own. Fight 'til the end.

7. George O'Malley

It's OK to be different than the usual, there is much more to life than what the people in high school remember and think of you as.

8. Callie Torres

Don't be afraid to express the type of person you are to anyone because everyone is unique in their own special way.

9. Richard Weber

Have the bravery and strength to get through the things you're frightened of.

10. Izzy Stevens

It's OK to need a hand from others. We can't always get through things alone.

11. Addison Montgomery

Don't pass up on any great opportunity given to you for someone else, because it could change not only your life but also yourself for the better.

12. Arizona Robbins

Nobody is perfect in life so sometimes it's OK to give someone a second chance. Accept people for who they have become, not by the mistakes they've made.

13. Jackson Avery

Always perform to your fullest because you never know who's watching.

14. Owen Hunt


Everyone makes mistakes in life. You can't learn from things in life without making mistakes first.

15. April Kepner

Don't leave things unsaid. Tell others how you feel, and don't keep it inside to destroy you later on.

16. Amelia Shepherd


There will be struggles and challenges throughout everyone's lives but fight 'til the end. Push through the hard times 'til you can't push any longer.

17. Teddy Altman


In order to move on with your life, you have to move on and forget your past and not look back. It's very painful and hard, but it's the only way.

18. Lexie Grey


Life doesn't just work out the way we want it to. We as individuals have to turn life into the way we want it to be for ourselves, and the way we all plan.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
