i've learned that you cannot make someone love you, all you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them that no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back. i've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it. That it's not what you have in your life but who you have in your life that counts. i've learned that it's taking me a long time to become the person that I want to be. That you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them. i've learned that you can keep going long after you can't. That we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel. i've learned that either you control your attitude or it controls you. That regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is a first, the passion fades and there had better be something else to take its place. how about you,how do you learn from your past????

I learned that not all people can be trusted. I learned that when you love, you open yourself vulnerable to so much hurt and pain. I learned that true friends may come in the most undesirable packaging (looks). I learned that life is not easy but mylot is there to help.

'I learned that true friends may come in the most undesirable packaging (looks)'~ I like that! That's what life offer to us. We just planning but anything can be possible- meet the expectation or not meeting the point at all.

I too have learned so many things from the past. Enumerating them all now will surely take an hour to type it all here. I would just say that all those realizations are kept always in mind so we may not do the same mistakes again. And by those realizations, we will then be able to grow and succeed in life.

Yes, there is a lot that a person can learn from their past. Actually what happens in our lives needs to be a building block for our future and one that should motivate and encourage us in the paths we need to go from here. It is also one that looking back should make us proud of where we have come from, or challenge us to do better in the future. Many of us have made mistakes, come from broken homes, etc. but our past need not determine our future.

When we love ourselves and do things we loves it is not all about us but when we do that we automatically will spread the loves to everyone. It sounds like selfish attitude but trust me when we feel good and happy everyone will feel the same too~Yes, we are responsible for what we do. Whatever decision we made the result will go to us. That is an up and down of life. The most important is how we recover and get up back and get through the life.

i guess i have learned that to love is better than to have never loved and to have been hurt in love many times means you have been lucky enough to have loved many times.

I've learned all the similar stuff you said above, most important thing that i've learned is to respect myself and now i spend more time in cleansing of my soul then worry about others that don't care and don't matter. With time, i've started t believe in the idiom'' you reap what you sow'' and also i learned that i cant make people get along with me, if they're not meant for me. I learned to believe ignorance can be bliss. I learned to love myself and love life with all my heart.

I have learned with time to become more wiser and less naive. In which it has afforded me to distinguish between non-trusting and trusting individuals. Each day for me though is still a learning lesson. One for which I go through I take as life lesson.

I learned a hard lesson in life "live within you means". Secondly, you learn how to have a control of your credit cards.

for 18 years of living in this world, i can say i have learned so much. and i'll still be learning more. whether a positive or negative happening in my life i have come to understand that there's always a learning or a lesson in everything that we experience. and sometimes, it takes more time to realize that lesson. :)

I've learned that when you love someone and she doesn't love back, you'll feel unfair. I've learned it is unnecessary to keep touch with your ex. I've learned girls always are selfish. I've learned it is hard to trust other people even who you loved. I've learned nowadays money is the most important thing.

thanks for some realization you shown to us.. I have many things learned while reading your post.. It is really hard to make people love you, but as you love a person, he is capable to understand and to feel what you feel so he has the instinct to return that love for you.but not all the time this is true..thats only my own perspective in that issue..stay happy life is so beautiful.
