What I've learned...

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.
‎
I’ve learned-‎
that no matter how much I care, some people just don’t care back.‎
‎‎
I’ve learned-‎
that you should never ruin an apology with an excuse.
‎
I’ve learned-‎
that you can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes. After that, you’d better know something.

I’ve learned-‎
that you shouldn’t compare yourself to the best others can do. (2nd Cor10:2)‎

I’ve learned-‎
that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life.

I’ve learned-‎
that I need not struggle for what others have the grace to do....e.g Singing‎😋😋

I’ve learned-‎
that I should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.

I’ve learned-
that I can keep going long after I can’t.

I’ve learned-‎
that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.
‎‎‎
I’ve learned-‎
Godliness with contentment is great gain
‎
I’ve learned-‎
that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.

I’ve learned-‎‎
that sometimes when I’m angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn’t give me the right to be cruel.
‎
I’ve learned-‎
that God is good all the time but you have to be good too. ‎‎
‎
I’ve learned-‎‎
that you should never tell a child their dreams are unlikely or outlandish. Few things are more humiliating, and what a tragedy it would be if they believed it.
‎
I’ve learned-‎
that it isn’t always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you are to learn to forgive yourself.‎
‎
I’ve learned-‎
that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.
‎‎
I’ve learned-‎
that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.

I’ve learned-
that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you’ve celebrated.
‎
I’ve learned-‎
that God is God anyway, irrespective of what you think.

I've learned-‎
that it's possible you've learned something from what I've learned

Awesome Evening!‎

Land of Illusions

What happens when ‘real’ meets ‘imaginary’?
Or when you fall in love with a joke?
They both turn out the same way,
Fading away quickly when you come close enough.
A mirror on a bed of stone, a mirage to taunt the sight.
It sends cold shivers drifting down my spine,
because I was finding it hard to move forward,
Then I realized I had lost my drive.
My mind, teeming with ideas, like puzzle pieces
… But none seem to fall in perfect sync,
around a line of best fits.
A world brightened by fragile light sources, fireflies.
With sand dunes on the oceans
And tidal waves in the deserts.
Reality splashes me with rocks and crushes me with water.

These thoughts came bubbling out of the deep,
Like rubble rolling down the mountainside, steep.
They take on different roles,
What I call a play on words,
Each character, epic in its own special way.
The game, the gain, the pain – insane, the way the play is made, dismays the sane.
Hitting me with a wave of deep heat, reality.
It didn’t fit in with the hit list till it deemed us fit to sip its chilled drink of understanding, comprehension.
“This is my own version of events”, Sande.
Like Eminem, I can’t help but think I came into the world at a time when it was in need of a villain.
It turns out, I’m just a lonely hero, just trying to fight my battles, a war of notes.
But this is just a bunch of keys, rattling through the very fabric of reality,
Resounding throughout time and space,
On a piano, ivory and ebony,
We live together in perfect harmony.
