Lesson learned

Number 13
in The Daily challenge from #reverb10,
December 17, 2010       

Prompt: Lesson learned.
What was the best thing you learned
about yourself this past year?
And how will you apply that lesson
going forward?


The best thing I relearned this past year

is that I am never too old to learn.

I also learned that the older one gets,

the more one should not depend on

tomorrow to get around to it.

'Round-to-its are rarely ever accomplished.

Learn to stay in the moment, be happy now, do not set

expectations of happiness on prposed events that may

or may not occur.

Whazzzz happening???

"You cannot do a kindness too soon,
for you never know how soon it will be too late."   
 ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson

Most importantly, learn that it is better to do it now than
to make yourself believe that you will get around to it.

"Hitch your happiness to things no one can take away.
Do something you love that requires nothing but your heart.
Let your joy arise from within."   ~    Buddha   

Today, expect to learn from every lesson, good, bad or indifferent.

 Happiness is never having to say "I Know".
