About This Quote
Every event in one’s life has a lesson to teach. The thoughtful imbibe the lesson and forget the incident. The thoughtless forget the lesson but keep thinking about the event. I’m sure you’ve had the experience of falling down, falling apart, falling on your face, falling out of love, falling behind, falling behind in school, falling into debt, falling into depression or some other situation that was beyond your control.
You might even be thinking right now that the only thing you learned from this incident is that you should not climb on top of animals. Think again! Every event in our lives has a lesson to teach us if we are willing to be taught. We can learn more from our failures than our victories.
So don’t throw out every negative experience you ever had; use it as a learning opportunity!
