What did I learn…
I learned that sometimes it is easier to share my soul with the whole world than it is to share it with someone intimate.
I learned that aspiring toward my desires takes true commitment and, a solid belief that my goals have legitimacy.
I learned that asking for understanding is sometimes impossible, but giving understanding is not.
I learned that trying to prepare
others for what lies ahead, may
confuse their innocence and slow
down their progress.
I learned that saying no to someone else, even when they object can
help them learn to say no in their own lives, when
need be.
I learned that wanting and
needing are hard to separate, but the difference is
of great importance.
I learned that I am stronger than I
thought I was, and that I need both
strength and insight to function.
I learned that I will not always feel
positive, but that, my down
days give me perspective.
I learned that patience takes self-discipline, but its rewards are immense.
I learned that letting someone else’s laughter reach my heart is just as rewarding as saying something to make them laugh.
I learned that laughing after
making a mistakeDoes not erase its
valuable lesson.
I learned that appreciation of
others, of life and of challenges
Causes each day to be full and
fruitful.
I learned that it is good to expect
better of one’s self; but, not so good to stress over petty
details.
I learned that living is not one huge moment of joy
It is the travel, and the unravel - the discovery of
life,
That builds foundations for joy and for loving and living.
