Well, I could go on & on for pages - but I'll not.



A few things, though, in general:


~Karma... keep it in mind.

~Treat others as you want to be treated.

~Try to learn from your mistakes.

~There is always room for improvement.

~Be good, or be good at it.


~Etc., etc., etc.

Is Karma something that tells everything happens to us is a result of our choices before?

to cherish every given minute you have with your loved ones because one day they will leave you forever and you will never have the chance of spending another minute with them...

Sorry, but you'll have to draw your own conclusions on that. Reason being, I feel, it's really a subjective matter...

It has taught me to keep my mouth shut up (though I always find it hard to practice)
I think it is a good lesson to share with everybody else too.wave

Life has taught me many lessons. The one that stick out is : never expect things to go smoothly. There are always things in the way to overcome.

If you do nothing - you can never be blamed.
If you say nothing - you never have to apologise/explain.

I am so dumb that I usually forget all the teachings it nicely gives me. I think that is the lesson: many humans (most of us I dare say ) never bloody learn.devil

This is what I posted in a similar thread titled "What have you learned?"


Nothing can stop me from doing anything I want to do, except my own limitations on myself.

Courage and strengh can always be found no matter how bad things are or may seem.

Don't just simply accept things, question them until you find the right answers.

Don't follow everyone else, be your own person.

Never let the turkey's get you down.

Sometimes people aren't really who we think they are.

Sometimes people mean more to you than you realize.

Sometimes we trust those that should not be trusted & don't trust the ones we should.

Family means more than other things.

True friends stand by you no matter what happens, even if you may be wrong.

Children and Grandchildren are a precious gift.

People can be crueler than we think.

Happiness starts from within. No one can make you happy, but you can share the happiness.

Love happens, but it doesn't always stay.

Treasure what you have today, because tomorrow it may not be there.

Situations aren't always what they seem to be. There's a lot of grey shades between black and white.

Remember to tell the people you love that you love them, even if they don't love you back.

Always stay in the moment...Yesterday is the past it cannot be changed, tomorrow may come but it isn't promised, today you can do anything you put your mind to and make it happen.

Choices are just that, choices. Whether they are right wrong or indifferent it's no ones place to judge.

There are no mistakes in life, everything happens for a reason.

Life can be wonderful if you live it, and not let it pass you by.

No matter how many curve-balls you're thrown, eventually you'll hit a home run.

When life hands you lemons, make lemonade!

Life has taught me that I can't make anyone else be happy, so the best I can do is be happy myself, then others can be happy with me.

I returned and saw under the sun,
that the race is not to the swift,
nor the battle to the strong,
neither yet bread to the wise,
nor yet riches to men of understanding,
nor yet favor to men of skill,
but time and chance happeneth to them all
