After a while you learn the subtle difference between

holding a hand and chaining a soul

and you learn that love doesn't mean leaning

and company doesn't always mean security.

And you begin to learn that kisses aren't contracts and presents aren't promises

and you begin to accept your defeats with your head up and your eyes ahead

with the grace of a woman/man, not the grief of a child

and you learn to build all of your tomorrows on today

because tomorrows ground is too uncertain for plans

and futures have a way of falling down in mid-flight.

After a while you learn that even sunshine burns if you get too much

so you plant your own garden and decorate your own soul

instead of waiting for someone to bring you flowers.

And you learn that you really can endure

that you really are strong

and you really do have worth

and you learn...

and you learn...

with every goodbye...you learn. rose

you would think we would learn that lesson with all the pain it causes but yet repeat it. Are we creatures of habit? Why do we do it?

I think she is trying to say that instead of depending on someone to make you happy inside..be happy with who you are.

well...depends on the person.... There are young people out there that have alot of common sense as well as people that never get the hint no matter how old they get.

If someone constantly finds themselves getting into the same bad situations then I would have to say that they may never ever learn and it is just a character flaw on their part...

Usually people learn from their pain and realize "why" and "how" they are getting themselves into situations and eventually learn how to make wiser choices. The key to it is to look at yourself and others in an objective light and be able to accept what you see...I dunno, that's just what I think is all.

banana Again lion I agree totally on ur last thought,"usually people..."I have through the years learned and do like myself,don't rely on others'if their willing 2 help great'no expectations.Learned the difference is between falling in love or falling in lust.Learn 2 enjoy life whether with a partner or without.After yrs. and yrs. I at 48 learned that the saying is true in my life"if it seems 2 good 2 be true,it probably is"
