What Lessons Have You Learnt In Life?

[nailit]

If you could pass on the wisdom of your time on earth to others, what would it be?
We've all been young and full of hopes and desires, and we've all grown older and coped with life's curve balls and dissapointments. But if you could pass on what youve learnt to others, what would it be?

(who knows, perhaps some of your life lessons could be of use to other ABers...)

I have learned that when I'm doing something scary I'm not alone. When I have done exams, there's always been other people doing them with me. When I was in labour there were other women in labour in the same hospital going through it too. Whatever I have to face, other people are experiencing it too, and it helps me to know that.

I agree with jakep. Larkin caught something with, This be the verse.

I would hope that everyone here recognises the Larkin references above but, just in case anyone doesn't, here's the poem:
