TIME is NOW

WHAT IS A LIFE LESSON? A life lesson is just what it sounds like — a lesson you learn in life. It’s really based on the idea of learning from your mistakes. These lessons could be described as defining moments that are remembered. Since they are based on an individual’s life experiences, they are unique to each person. Life lessons can occur in any area. Although we learn many things each day, we don’t always learn something that we feel will affect our behavior for the rest of our lives. This separates a life lesson from everything else we learn. It is usually something we feel profoundly changed by. Life lessons can serve to help us understand ourselves better. Since the lesson is learned through the consequences of our actions or reactions, in this way we can gain insight into how we think, act and react in certain situations. Perhaps one of the biggest lessons we can ultimately learn is that while we can’t control everything, we can control our response to things.
