27 Years of Lessons Learned

Lessons you just learned along the way… for twenty-seven years

Last two weeks ago, I celebrated my birthday in our province and done the Eat and Pray mission. Just to reflect and realize what are the things I learned for 27 years of my life, here are my 27 list of my lessons learned in life and love…

Take note this is my own list. Something I came up while reflecting and travelling in the province. Something I learned based on my experiences and words of wisdom from different people.

1. There is no permanent thing here on earth. Change is always occurring and constant

2. When you love someone be prepared to get hurt.

3. Make sure that you always have a backups when plans fail

4. It is always better to have alone days without your significant other. It is another way of finding yourself without losing everything to your relationship or losing your inner self

5. Love is not the answer for getting married. Sometimes it is just the part why we want to get marry but at the end of the day it is for other reasons aside from love

6. Do good deeds and it will be back in two folds. Do bad deeds and it will come back in three folds

7. When in a relationship it is still important to have your own individuality and not depending on your partner, because if the relationship fail, you will all end up broken into pieces

8. Life's success is not about on the destination but the journey you had before reaching your destination

9. Do not trust everybody. There are always snakes sneaking up past to you

10. Be the best whatever you are.

11. Do not listen on what other people are thinking of you.

12. You are the master of your fate and the captain of your soul. At the end of the day, whatever choices or decisions you made, it is always up to you. You cannot blame other people for your misfortunes or mistakes

13. True friends are always there no matter what circumstances happen. They know when to cheer you up or cry with you when situations arises.

14. Life is short so remember to embrace it with happiness and contentment

15. Faith will keep us stronger

16. Be humble no matter what status you have achieved in your life

17. Sadness is part of your life and it's not bad to feel sad sometimes but don't fall into the trap of always being sad or depress

18. Do not be affected on criticisms especially if its coming from person who doesn't know you. Why waste your time on their silly thoughts, after all they are not God to judge you.

19. Be happy if you can. Do not waste your life and time on people who doesn't want or deserve you.

20. You can have a few days of bliss, then comes the hell… and then try to get the best of situation. Like my Dad always says, failure is a blessing in disguise

21. Everything happens for a reason

22. Cry if you need to release the pent-up anger

23. Be angry and sad for a while then move on

24. Write all your thoughts, it helps to pour out emotions. Writings is best when emotions are included in the deep words and thoughts

25. Spend time on occasional readings and studying. Not only it is a hobby but helps you improve yourself.

26. Do not waste your time on people who doesn't want you. If you already reached out and tried your best to mend things and they do not reciprocate then its time to move on and live happily without them

27. Whatever current state you are in, be grateful for all the blessings the Lord is showering you. You might be having problems with your relationship but be thankful for a great career and family and friends around you. After all, they are the reason for you to move on and live life to the fullest
