I'm sure there's at least a dozen of you out there who have watched "Grey's Anatomy" beginning to end and maybe even over again. If there's ever a time you feel like you've hit rock bottom and just want to give up, here are 10 quotes from "Grey's Anatomy" that I'm sure we can all relate to.
1. "I am a human being. I make mistakes. I am flawed. We all are."
Sometimes it's really hard to except our flaws and we bash ourselves for not being that perfect person who does everything right. It's important for us to start realizing that we are human, we make mistakes and we are flawed, but it's OK.
2. "Sometimes things are simply out of your control. You can't change them. You can't bend them to your will."
Let go and let God. It's easy to blame ourselves for something completely out of our control. We need to learn that things happen for a reason and we have to accept that we can't change the inevitable.
3. "The human life is made of choices. Yes or no. In or out. And then there are the choices that matter. Love or hate. To be a hero or to be a coward. To fight or give in. To live. Or die. Live or die. That's the important choice. And it's not always in our hands."
We need to stop living in fear and live in the moment. We need to live our lives to the fullest and appreciate what we have right in front of us.
4. "Have some fire. Be unstoppable. Be a force of nature."
Chase after your dreams and never give up. Don't let anyone ever tell you that you can't do something -- prove them wrong.
5. "Sometimes it's good to be scared. It means you still have something to lose."
Most of us walk around acting tough when really, we're not OK and we're scared. It's OK not to be OK. It's OK to be scared and hold on.
6. "At some point you have to make a decision. Boundaries don't keep other people out. They fence you in. Life is messy. That's how we're made. So, you can waste your lives drawing lines. Or you can live your life crossing them."
Push yourself beyond your limits. Dare to be different and never let boundaries define you.
7. "All you can do is be brave and get out there. You fought. You loved. You lost. Walk tall."
You may feel like you have given everything you possibly could have, but don't give up. Stand tall and be proud, get back out there and experience new things.
8. "Everyone needs help from time to time. Someone to look out for them. Make sure they're OK."
Many people feel that by asking for help, it ruins their ego or reputation but that's not true. It's OK to ask for help and have someone to lean on in times of need.
9. "Knowing is better than wondering, walking is better than sleeping, and even the biggest failure, the worst, beats the hell out of never trying."
If you never try, you'll never know. The worst that can happen is that you fail and get back up on your feet to try again.
10. "The expected is just what keeps us steady, standing, still. The expected is just the beginning. The unexpected is what changes our lives."
Be prepared for what's to come. You never know when life is going to throw a curve ball at you, so it's important to expect the unexpected and be ready for life-changing events.
