Life
is a journey of daily experiences and lessons, but the only way
you'll grow is when you have an eye to recognise the hidden tale in
every encounter. In every negative situation, there is an equal
positive force; you just have to learn to identify it and associate
yourself with it. You’ve encountered many obstacles in your life
but you’ve also learnt something from those encounters.
-
I've learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is
be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them.
-
I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people just don't
care back

I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds
to destroy it.
-
I've learned that it's not what you have in your life, but who you
have in your life that counts.
-I've
learned that you can get by on charm for about 15 minutes. After
that, you'd better know something.
-I've
learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to the best others can
do, but to the best you can do.
-I've
learned that it's not what happens to people that's important. It's
what they do about it.

learned that no matter how thin you slice it, there are always two
sides.

learned that it's taking me a long time to become the person I want
to be.
-I've
learned that it's a lot easier to react than it is to think.

feel.
-I've
learned that either you control your attitude or it controls you.
-I've
learned that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at
first, the passion fades and there had better be something else to
take its place. (Amen to that!)
-
I've learned that heroes are people who do what has to be done when
it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
-
I've learned that learning to forgive takes practice.
-I've
learned that there are people who love you dearly, but just don't
know how to show it.

have learned that if you want to make it bad enough, no matter how
bad it is, you are going to make it

the best time.

learned that I'm getting more and more like my grandma, and I'm kind

-I've
learned that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry,
but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.
-I've
learned that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest
distance. Same goes for true love.

learned that just because someone doesn't love you the way you want
them to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

learned that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences
you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how
many birthdays you've celebrated.
-
I've learned that you should never tell a child her dreams are
unlikely or outlandish. Few things are more humiliating, and what a
tragedy it would be if she believed it
-I've
learned that your family won't always be there for you. It may seem
funny, but people you aren't related to can take care of you and love
you and teach you to trust people again. Families aren't biological.
-I've
learned that no matter how good a friend someone is, they're going to
hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.

learned that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

learned that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't
stop for your grief.

learned that our background and circumstances may have influenced who
we are, but we are responsible for who we become.
-I've
learned that sometimes when my friends fight, I'm forced to choose
sides even when I don't want to.

learned that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they
don't love each other. And just because they don't argue, it doesn't
mean they do.

friends change.

learned that no matter the consequences, those who are honest with
themselves get farther in life.
-I've
learned that many things can be powered by the mind, the trick is
self-control.

learned that no matter how many friends you have, if you are their
pillar, you will feel lonely and lost at the times you need them
most.

for what you believe.
Ponder
points
List
down those memories, those encounters, and those sad moments; and
also list down the lessons learnt from those experiences. Embrace
those lessons and use them as a map and reference area for the
future. Every struggle in your life has shaped you into the person
you are today. Be thankful for those hard times, they can only make
you stronger. Your life is a message to the world, make it memorable.
