Barry Allen is my dream man and along with that comes his many life lessons that he can teach all of us. From overcoming his traumatic childhood to getting to become the fastest man alive, Bartholomew Allen is a man we can all look up to.
1. Love with all your heart.
Barry Allen shows unconditional love for his childhood sweetheart, Iris West. He'll do anything to keep her safe.
2. Don't let your past define you.
Barry's mom is murdered and his dad is framed for the murder. However, Barry doesn't let that define how he turns out and he eventually sees the light of the situation that he grew up in.
3. It's ok to be nerdy.
Barry is an intelligent CSI agent in the applied science division and he isn't afraid to show off what he knows.
4. There's no 'I' in 'team.'
Barry knows that he'd be nowhere if it wasn't for his team at Star Labs from Cisco to Caitlin, they make sure Barry stays sane.
5. Never be afraid to ask for help.
The crossover episodes are my favorite so it's always fun to watch when Barry asks for SuperGirl or The Arrow's help.
6. Family is everything.
Joe West raised Barry and even though they aren't related by blood, he'll protect him at all costs.
7. You can always change the outcome of your future.
When Iris' death seemed inevitable last season, Barry has proven that he won't settle for things he knows he can change.
8. You can always find the humor even in bad situations.
Cisco is definitely the mode of comic relief in the show especially with the names he gives the metahuman villains.
9. It's always a good idea to be honest.
Barry had a hard time keeping his identity from the man who raised him as well as the love of his life. Once he told them about his true identity, his life was so much better.
10. Don't be afraid to indulge in your guilty pleasures.
From getting coffee from Jitters to eating endless amounts of Big Belly Burger, the team knows that you only live once.
