I think I'm in the middle of learning you can't please everyone or have everyone's respect. I've known that logically for a while but I think it's just starting to sink in on an emotional level.
 
In the United States, you need more than a good credit score to get approved for a house loan. I only have one credit card and have amazing credit and was denied because I don’t have enough trade lines of credit! No one ever told me it was this hard to buy a house :(

Wow that sounds harsh :( I love how non-accessible this stuff is..
 
That just because the majority of people hate someone, doesn't mean that doing anything mean to them is justified. A lot of "good" people are more than happy to jump at such an opportunity as long as it doesn't harm their reputation.

Parting ways from a very good friend can hurt just as bad or worse than a romantic breakup.
 
Keep your family close and don't hold grudges or fight over stupid stuff. Enjoy your time with them because you don't know how much longer you can make those memories.
 
To be honest, I haven’t learned a new life lesson in awhile, but I would say the last one I learned was that not losing a single friend is very important to me. There are toxic people in this world that will disguise themselves as friends, and there are genuine people. Never let go of a single genuine friend, because they’ll be there for you when you really need it. :)
 
People die. They're here, and then they're not. Don't talk behind their back. Don't mistreat or neglect them. Be with them, love them, and help them without repayment.

I'm going to call my Grandma now.
 
Never get too comfortable, because life will quickly decide to throw a monkey wrench into your operation and screw everything over.

Just because you were once a victim, it does not give you the right to victimize others.

It's okay to make mistakes as long as you learn from them and don't continue to repeat them.

Don't pull your hair out over the past, it's not worth it. All you can do is change the future, provided you don't overthink and get stuck in your own head. Take life as it comes, and just do your best.

I still have a lot to learn.
 
everything happens for a reason, so don't dwell on the past. all that hardship, failure, betrayal, agony, pain, and suffering. it has all shaped you into the better, stronger person you are.
even if you can't see the reason now, you will see it in the future. so don't bash yourself for your unintended mistakes.
 
That we don't realize how much we take spending time with our friends and family for granted and it really hurts not being able to see them during this period.
 
if you want something really bad, get it all out and imagine what it would be like to have that thing.
once you feel like you've envisioned it enough, let it go

sometimes that thing comes true (;
 
Not everyone has the best intentions. Be careful who you open up to. Not everyone is your friend. They will betray you in a minute.
 
You don't have to post on every thread you see. This isn't about anyone in particular. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

And don't always make assumptions about people's intentions. :)
