Life Has Taught Me



Quote of the day:

I slept and dreamt that life was Joy. I woke and saw that life was Duty. I acted, and behold, Duty was Joy- Rabindranath Tagore


Life has taught me
to be a dreamer ...
to search for answers where there appears none
to laugh at myself often....

Life has taught me
that friends come and friends go-just like the sunrise and the sunset....
and that the greatest impressions made on us...
are often by people who get to leave too soon

Life has taught me
never to look down on an individual....
never to take things for granted...
and to always see lights at the end of the tunnel

Life has taught me
that trust built over the years can crumble due to little fears

Life has taught me
that putting a smile on someone's face is worth more than riches....

Life has taught me
that too much of everything-although sometimes good always end up being far worse in the end

Life has taught me
to be brave...
to be strong...
to be right....to be wrong
to believe...to achieve
to be naive...
to be free

Life jas taught me these and lots more....
what has life taught you?

  1. I was thinking about this today. Life has taught me to always do the best I can do, most of all to do my best to help other people no matter how powerless I feel, every little goes along way. Life is beautiful for me (lol at least most of the time), i'm going to make it beautiful for others.

    Life has taught me to believe in myself, even when everyone around me thinks i'm crazy.
    Life has taught me to be grateful for who i am, and what i have.Life has taught me that it is the little things that matter the most.
    Life has taught me to live for the moments that take my breath away( i had to add that naa) for you only live once (well twice according to 007, onme for yourself and one in your dreams...)
    Above all Life has taught me to LOVE! coz it's all that matters...

  3. Life has taught me a lot; I have learned what it means to love and to be hurt. I have learned to say No even when I wish to say Yes. I have learned to trust and believe God even when everything around me is going down south. I have learned to grow up even when i didnt want to. I havent learned everything but i have learned quite a lot for my age

  5. That nothing is ever black or white. Sometimes Mr Grey peeks in.

    Sometimes may not work out the way you want them to but they eventually work out the way they are supposed to.

    Nothing is guaranteed.

    Life is fleeting.

  10. Life has taught me that my B will always deliver and make me think

    Life has taught me that life is way too short to live it as someone else

    Life has taught me that money might not buy you love, but it will pay for the plane ticket to fly anywhere in the world to find said love

    Life has taught me that what people say about me don't matter, the only thing that counts is HOW i see myself

    Life has taught me that love should not be feared but should be shared

    Life has taught me that at the end of the day, it is better to be hated for what you believe in than being loved over nothing.

    Life is way too short to count its many lessons, but i will rather learn something new everyday than be on the sidelines in my own life.


    B u have done it again.....i marvel at your thoughtprovoking words as usual.
