They say experience is the best teacher and I strongly agree on that for those will retain in your mind forever. There are different kinds of experience, some are good and the other is bad but both had helped us to become stronger and wiser. Based from my own, I had learned so much from my experience and to be honest it had helped me become a better one. How about you? Do you ever appreciate your experiences?

I agree, we really learn from our experiences. Especially those experiences that have caused our heart to break and made us cry, those are the ones that makes us more stronger and wiser and even think more maturely after all those experiences. I appreciate every experiences whether good or bad. I think of what better ways to do to make that experience worth remembering and what things I should have done to make me face it better the second time around.

Hi christine! I believe that we all must be able to learn from our experiences. I can say that what I am now is because of my past experiences. Without those hardships, I wouldn't have been strong; without those circumstances, I wouldn't have been able to appreciate life. I guess we can only say that we learn from it when we are already able to overcome it, and use those experiences to face more difficult situations.

Experience is nothing more than learning to not repeat the same mistakes so that you can find the joy in life and in that way help others not to do the same mistakes you did. There are things that have to be lived to be understood, no matter how painful or how happy, it is this, the constant learning that makes life so interesting. I will not say that I appreciate all my experiences especially the sad ones but that they are part of me, I can not ignore them, that is what life is. As long as the good things outweigh the bad ones life goes on.

Yes, I learn a lot from experience. And most of the time, they are painful lessons. So, I try to mimic what some sage before has said - to learn from the experience of others. That way, I don't have to go through the painful lesson myself. But, there are just some lessons that we need to learn on our own, and the hard way at that.
