what have you learnt about life so far ? and how many times do you need to be reincarnated ( Archived) (12)

before you've learnt it all ?

I've heard of sleep walking.....by chance, do you sleep-type?

I have learnt in this life:

1) Thou shalt not think that all persons are kind

2) Thou shalt take it that all slippery things are brown

3) Thou shalt not give and hope to receive back from the Tax Man because they are too busy not calculating how the druglords got their Audi A4's

4) Thou shalt not drink all night at 26yrs and hope to make it into work and no-one notices

5) Thou shalt not expect a stranger to care when someone needs CPR

6) Thou shalt not be bothered by the small things in life that you learn are not important at 30

7) Thou shalt not expect that cliques do not exist

8)Thou shall expect that good things happen to good people

9)Thou shall expect that each individual is Special

10) Thou shall expect that each small act is an act of your own Kindness reciprocated

I do not believe in reincarnation, but, all I Ever really needed to know I learned in kindergarten, as follows.

Share everything.
Play fair.
Don't hit people.
Put things back where you found them.
Clean up your own mess.
don't take things that aren't yours.
say you're sorry when you hurt someone.
Wash your hands before you eat.
Flush the toilet.
Warm cookies and cold milk are good for you.
Live a balanced life.
Learn some and think some and draw and paint and sing and dance and play and work everyday some.
Take a nap every afternoon.
When you go out into the world, watch for traffic, hold hands and stick together.
Be aware of wonder and wonderful things.
Remember the little seed in the plastic cup. The roots go down and the plant goes up and nobody really knows how or why, but we are still all like that.
Goldfish and hampsters and white mice and even the little seed in the plastic cup - they all die...So do we.

I smile and all should that read your post Scottishlass

Well said

Life isn't always fair;
People aren't always who they say they are;
Words can hurt;
Words can heal;
Love is sweet ........ and bitter at the same time;
Forgiveness is healing for both parties;
No one wins in an argument;
Two people can disagree, but be both right at the same time;
Time heals and memories fade;
Peace will never happen;
Joy can be found in the simplest of things;
A smile can make another's day;
A kind word is so simple, but sometimes so rarely said;
Wisdom isn't learned from books, but by living;
Humbleness - most who have it - don't realize it.

As for reincarnation - don't believe it occurs
I do believe in God and that we are his creation
Don't understand a lot - but one day believe that we will know the truth
Perception in life - is vital
