The people in my world
I read this today and it really struck home:
Don’t you ever REGRET knowing someone in your life.
Good people will give you happiness,
Bad people will give you experience,
While the worst people will give you a lesson,
And the best people will give you memories.
I've been asking my HP about why some of the people in my life are there... and I figure this was the answer. Apparently some of them are there just to serve as a really bad example.
I have the experience, I figure I qualify for the t-shirt and the hat. I really want to learn the lessons I am supposed to learn so that I can move on to a more balanced and peaceful place.
One lesson I thought I had already learned, apparently I needed to learn again: Other people do not get to define me. Even if they say it really loudly, that doesn't make it true.
What have the people in your life taught you that helped you to grow?
