The lessons learned...

To err is human....right beautiful and handsome people? right!!...

In life...we all make mistakes. Sometimes mistakes humilliating, embarrassing and hurtful. Some possibly leaving very visible scars on our souls. But that is how we learn. Learn to be better individuals, to do better and to make better decisions or choices next time round.

Those mistakes, no matter what the consiquences, are just a few of the many things that make us, shape us and ensure that we know how to deal with bigger things yet to come. A sad reality though...is that we will never live long enough to experience all mistakes one can make under the sun or arm ourselves with enough information to never get hurt or hurt others.

There are some things though, that you can experience just by observing a neighbour, friend, colleague...etc. Whether you know for a fact that you will never make them is a topic for another day. Phela tomorrow remains a mystery....

Anyway.....the point i'm trying to make is that mistakes and learning go hand in hand. By making a mistake, you learn....Learn once again...to do better, react better next time...or avoid the same trauma. That error builds you in a way. Those mistakes, in the long run, becomes experiences and lessons learned.

Sooooooooooo.....
What interesting lesson have you learned so far? These below are just a few of mine...
Here goes:

I have learned that money doesn't necessarily make you happy.....

I have learned that you can have sex with someone even if you don't love them.....

I have learned that there still are good men out there.....

I have learned that losing a loved one is the most painful feeling I have experienced to date...but now know that dwelling on the pain will only delay my healing process. If they pass on, they were not meant to travel the rest of my journey with me....so the justice I can do unto them...and myself...is to let them go...no matter how hard....

I have learned that someone may not love you the same way you love them...but that does not mean they do not love you to the best of their ability....

I have learned that a heart can never stop loving no matter how much hurt it has endured...it's simply too big and generous....

I have also learned that if you are gonna express your opinions mo tvsa, you need to develop a thick skin and take the criticism with a pinch of salt!! LOL.... 

So, kindly share with us those valuable  and naughty  lessons learned...

MY QUOTES BASICALLY DESCRIBE MY RESPONESE TO THIS ARTICLE,HERE GOES:
It is a common mistake to consider that the limit of our power of perception is also the limit of all there is to perceive.

"I of mine own self can do nothing, it is the Father that dwelled within me that does all the work."

Whatever the information, whatever our perceptions, we will get what we need to learn in order to do better. That is the universal law.

i have learnt to take responsibilities of everything i do.

i have learnt to talk to my God on a different note i.e. to just be thankful for everything he's done for me and trust that he's got bigger plans for me then i have .

i have learnt that to know the limit of possible is by going beyond the possible. 

I have learnt to never go bitter or discouraged when challenges come my way.

I have learnt that fighting for something and getting is much easier than to maintain it.

You must learn to crawl before you can walk

The person you think you know best may not even know anything about themselves.

You can never genuinely love another person if you do not love yourself.

It’s easier to see someone else’s mistakes but harder to see yours.

Every conversation you have can give you valuable life lessons.

my biggest regret and mistake was staying a horrible 7 months in a very abusive relationship that still haunts me till now. My advise is if you can see that it doesn't look right at the start, don't pursue it! Life is trying to tell you - dont!

Hi all! Gr8 article tshd21!

LOVE: i was in a relationship where i loved the person and the love returned was insufficient! so i took back my love and invested in kum, back 2me! thats the best thng u can do 4urself and spread love 2 those who giv it 2 u in the same amount!


I have also learned that if you are gonna express your opinions mo tvsa, you need to develop a thick skin and take the criticism with a pinch of salt!! LOL....

Happy Easter!

I have learned that people who want to be in your life, will be in your life, irrespective of your flaws....


I have learned that it takes two  people to put a relationship together. If the other party is not willing to do their part, you can't force them...


I have learned that the people you least expect will often believe in you and your abilities...

I have learned that even thought my employer will not pay me for working until thiis time ... i must just work for my own sanity and satisfaction after all not everything is about money.

i have learned im better off working that spending hours crying for missing someone .... and i have learned that it doesnt matter even if i can speak with them for an hours, hearing their voice doesnt take the pain of missing them away but worsen it.

eish let me sink on my work

Great article gal

I have learned so much:i have learned that I am the master of my own destiantion

I have learned that i cant make someone happy if im not happy

I cant expect  someone else to love me if i dont love me enough

I am responsible for my own happiness and dont have to depend on someone else to keep me happy

That friendship is defined in many ways

That PREVENTION IS REALY BETTER THAN CURE,some deseases dont have cure!!!!!!!!!!!

That its ok to be selfish

That being alone does not necessarily mean that you are lonely

That friends are extremely important in ones life

That money isnt everything but without money life sucks


Above all:I have learned that its ok to mogwanti if otswa Pitori.LOL
