Life’s Lessons
Life’s lessons…..they can be hard lessons to learn but they are necessary in the long run.
I was talking to someone today and they were feeling bad about a relationship not working out the way they had hoped. The person thought how could I have done this for over three years and not have seen the “ signs’ . This made me think about a job I had years ago where I was very unhappy but did not look for another job and kept staying until finally one day I quit. Now years later I talk about experiences at that job.
I was talking to a teenager who essentially is starting their life and they were talking about life’s choices and they were truthfully looking at them as real choices like behind door one or door two.
Life is a choice and sometimes we make bad choices and sometimes we make good choices but ultimately we make a choice that is the right one for us whether it makes us happy or just teaches us a lesson.
I am not someone who is ashamed of my past. I’m actually really proud. I know I made a lot of mistakes, but they, in turn, were my life lessons.
