We may not realise it sometimes but, we really learn something new every day.
It may be on the news or someone we talk to.
I learnt today on the tv that sheep only have to nipples to feed from.
If they have three born then one is taken away to be fed from those that only have one born!
Fascinating eh!
What did you learn today?

You are right. We do learn everyday. Since my day has only begun I will tell you what I learned yesterday. No matter how well behaved a four year old may be, 5 hours at the mall is too long. They will melt down.

Yes, we do learn something new every day, my dear friend, and what's more, we pass on our knowledge to others, who in turn, pass their knowledge even further down the line. Life's lessons are very important to our quality of life, I feel.
I learned today that even when the World looks grey and dismal, the Sun will always come out and balance everything. The negative start to the year, was the grey, dismal day, but Saturday, the Sun came out and has continued to do so, for the last three days. Something I noticed this morning taught me that for every negative, there is a positive, and that all things will balance out, if we only look to the future with a positive mental attitude, and work towards obtaining and maintaining this balance.
Brightest Blessings, my dear friend. x

It's just my deep way of thinking. The clouds represent the negatives and obstacles in life, but we know the Sun (positive), is always there if only we can overcome the obstacles. The Universe is made to balance, and we have to balance ourselves, in order to live our lives to the fullest and best we can.

A great response as usual and you pointed out that the weather can look grey and dismal or bright and chheery when the sun comes out. But reall the sun is ALWAYS ther it's just that we cannot see it due to the clouds being in between the ground and the outer atmosphere.
So even if we cannot see the sun we can have it in our hearts and have a positive mental attitude towards life all the time.
Blessings to you as well my friend.

we do learn from all walks of life...from people we don't know personally but has in some way touched a part of our soul and realized valuable things in life...
today, I've learned to appreciate the value of taking things one at a time...as I am always hasty with all my work as if I'm always running out of time..therefore, I always feel exhausted and burdened everyday, overlooking what joy this day was able to bring me...
Life must always be appreciated ..and that's what I've learned to day and I'm happy about it...

That's an interesting fact about the sheep. It would be hard on a ewe to raise more than two lambs anyway. They grow so quick and that're so greedy!
I breed dogs, and I know that girl dogs can have varying numbers of nipples. It doesn't make a difference to how many pups they have in a litter though. We've had from 2 pups up to ten pups raised in one litter.
If there's a big litter, you have to work harder to make sure the pups all have a feed. You have to do that when you have a little pup too, otherwise they get shoved to one side by the big bullies. If a little pup gets pushed aside too often it can get cold and die, so puppy raising can be lots of hard work. Puppies are so cute though! I love the smell of a newborn pup's breath. It is one of the most wonderful things.
Some girl dogs are the most wonderful mothers and I hardly have to do anything up until it's time to start the babies on solids.

Yes, in fact we really do not notice it because it's just simple things that no one really cares about. We also fail to appreciate these things because we are moving in life too fast that we sometimes forget to take short stops and view the surroundings.

I did know that about sheep but I also know that I learn something new every day from reading discussions at myLot.
I think everyone can and should learn something new each day. Knowledge is power. The more you know the more you can understand about the ways of the world.

Hi deeeky,
I totally agree with you there. We do learn something new everyday. Today I learned that people in this country (Trinidad) are crazy over that "No Air" song by "Jordin Sparks and Chris Brown." But it is still early in the day, so I could probably find a more useful thing that I've learned later on today.
Yesterday I learned something more important though. Some people dream in black and white! I guess it seems new as I dream in full colour.
