Lessons In Life #45

21/06/201219/06/2012 CaroleHeidiLeave a comment

Lesson #45 Life isn’t tied with a bow but it’s still a gift. A multicoloured, many faceted gift. Treasure it, live it, love it. To quote Terry Goodkind’s Sword Of Truth series of books: ‘Your life is yours alone – Rise up and live it.’ * What are these Lessons In Life? – See my…… Continue reading Lessons In Life #45

Lesson #44 Yield You can’t be right all the time and sometimes it is more important to be wrong, or even give in even when you are right.That’s how relationships work. You yield. A hard lesson, but possibly the most important. * What are these Lessons In Life? – See my first post here to…… Continue reading Lessons In Life #44

Lessons In Life #43

Lesson #43 No matter how you feel – get up, dress up and show up. I have cried pathetically many times before events I have attended because I didn’t want to go. I didn’t want to dress up. I didn’t want to paint on a smile and talk to people. I just wanted to stay…… Continue reading Lessons In Life #43

Lesson #42 The best is yet to come. So let it come. Go with the flow, follow where life leads and remember that tomorrow might just be your day. But even then there might be something better waiting for you in the future. Who knows, sit back and enjoy the ride. And love with all…… Continue reading Lessons In Life #42

Lesson #41 Envy is a waste of time. You already have all you need. My best friend recently bought a house with her boyfriend. It’s a beautiful house with high ceilings and patio doors and a back garden. I recently got a council flat on my own with the Smalls. It doesn’t have a garden,…… Continue reading Lessons In Life #41

Lesson #40 If we all threw our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back. Yet another case of better the devil you know. Everyone worries about different things – but everyone worries. When it comes right down to it, everyone would rather be worried about what they know. Life is…… Continue reading Lessons In Life #40

Lesson #39 Get outside every day. Miracles are waiting everywhere. Even if it’s just a walk round the block or to the shop to buy a bar of chocolate. I spent an awful lot of time cooped up inside when my depression first hit and it made the world very small and very dark. I…… Continue reading Lessons In Life #39

Lesson #38 All that truly matters in the end is that you loved. It doesn’t matter if you won the lottery or got employee of the year six years running. Nobody will care if they can’t remember your name or your smile. Look back at your life, the people you remember best, the people you…… Continue reading Lessons In Life #38

Lesson #37 Your children only get one childhood. This doesn’t mean let them have every toy in the toyshop and every sweet on the shelf. It does mean let them grow up and learn in an environment of love, laughter and freedom. Let them explore their world themselves whenever it’s safe, let them play in…… Continue reading Lessons In Life #37

Lesson #36 Growing old beats the alternative – dying young. It is heartbreaking when babies die. It is heartbreaking when children die. It is heartbreaking when young people die. Of course it is heartbreaking when anyone dies, but it is less so when you at least have the reassurance that they lived a full and…… Continue reading Lessons In Life #36
