LearningTop Story - December 2017
Throughout life I, as have many others I'm sure, have gone through things I thought I wouldn't make it out of; felt pain, I thought would never end, and had new feelings I've never experienced and didn't know how to deal with. Getting through these difficult times and new experiences have made me who I am now and are what has taught me all the important lessons that will help me get through whatever challenge comes next. There’s a quote, from ‘Looking For Alaska’ by John Green that says, “We can’t know better until knowing better is useless”. I think this is the basic premise of learning from your mistakes, that until you've lived through it and overcome the challenge you don't know that you wish you knew what you know now sooner, but at least you'll know for the next time so you don't have to make the same mistakes twice. I strongly believe that you have to make your own mistakes and go through your own challenges to truly learn the most important lessons in life.
