Life Lessons

"The difference between school and life? In school you're taught a lesson and then given a test. In life you're given a test and then taught a lesson".

- Tom Boddett

Such is life. 

I've been learning that a lot of people (okay, not a lot, but some) that I've hung out with high school and even in college still have a lot of growing up to do. I know that you're always learning and growing in life, but there should be a certain point when you reach a level of maturity that can make you admirable. A role model, even. Now I'm not saying "I have arrived" or anything, but I'm happy and proud of the place I am in life right now.  I think once you can accept and understand the above quote, you're getting there.

  8. Maturity is something that takes place at various times for many... I think I was always an old sole...

  9. Right now, this quote is SO true for me. It's probably the truest thing I have read in a long time. Life teaches you lessons, and the only way you learn lesson is by experiencing them through life. It sucks, but it's effective.
