The older I get the more I realize just how much I don't know.

I've spent alot of my life alone, but I was never alone.

@house_cat  I am more resilient than I ever thought and can weather life's storms.   I may twist in the breeze but will land on my feet!

Life can change in an instant so cherish every moment of life.

 

Forgive and (try to) forget.

 

Tell those (humans and fur children) you love them. Every day.

 

Pray hard and never give up hope.

I'm a worrier -- many things I worry about never happen -- and somehow I haven't managed to learn anything from that!

Re: What has life taught you about yourself?

What my mother taught me as soon as I was old enough to understand(working at 8 years old).

 

Be Independent! Never depend on someone, or something, other than yourself. That means happiness/financial Independence/and be knowledgeable about every aspect of your life. 

 

Life DID NOT teach me, that would be my mother. I chose to live real life to learn about it, not book life. For me it was the right way to go. Started working young, and retired while I was a young 52.
