5 TIMELESS LESSONS EVERYONE LEARNS EVENTUALLY

(EXTRACTION FROM POST: 10 TIMELESS LESSONS EVERYONE LEARNS EVENTUALLY, WRITTEN BY: MARC AT http://www.marcandangel.com)

1. Beauty comes from within.

One does not become beautiful by trying to be beautiful.  One becomes beautiful by finding beauty in what’s already within.

2. Pain has a purpose.

Pain doesn’t just show up in your life for no reason.  It’s a sign that something in your life needs to change.  This change takes strength.  It’s not that those who are strong never get weak in the knees, or that they never gasp for a breath.  It’s that while their knees are shaking, they force themselves to breathe and to take another step.

3. There are right people, and wrong people, for you.

There are fake people, and those who are true friends.  There are people who take the heart out of you, and those who put it back.  You have a choice of who to spend time with.  True friends have an honest heart, and will go out of their way to help you when you need it most.  Stick with the people who never let you down and keep their promises.

4. Sometimes taking your own advice is hard.

Listening the same exact words said to others is a struggle.  That’s why friends are priceless.  Because sometimes you just need to hear it from someone other than yourself.

5. Forgiveness is the first step to recovery.

Sometimes we don’t forgive people because they deserve it; we forgive them because they need it, because we need it, and because we cannot move forward without it.  So cry, forgive, learn, and move on.  Let your tears water the seeds of your future growth and happiness.
