What is the most important lesson you've learned?

hmm do onto other as you may want others to do onto you?

Don't get your self so far into debt that you can't enjoy living life. Live life to the fullest because you never know when your time is up. I have watched my mom and step dad struggle to make ends meat and not be able to even go out to dinner because my step dad thought my mom needed a beautiful house. I lost a husband to cancer when he was in his early thirties. Those two things have taught me that living and enjoying life is the most important thing you can do.

I think the most important life lesson I have learned is to always take the "high road". Do the best, right thing that you can think of - this comes from life experience, not family/

The most important lesson for me has been taught by my father is: "never jug a book from its cover"

I would have to agree with busta1, do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

I have managed to learn something important from most of my family. Two that really stand out is my Aunt had a young daughter that lived a somewhat sheltered life. When the daughter reached her teenage years she went kind of wild. She did things her parents absolutly did not approve of. But my Aunt said. 'You don't throw your children away' I have lived by that. It's just easier to love your kids then try to prove your disappointment in the messes they get into. I have a cousin that made a real important statement one time that I think about often. And I share it with others. He helped his oldest daughter get a car, well, it turned out to be a mistake. When the next child got to that age she tried to use the 'Well you bought so and so a car' His response? 'Just because I made a mistake with your sister doesn't obligate me to make the same mistake with you' To me, that was pure wisdom.

the most important lesson ive learn is that do not just be academically wise but be street wise as well. life itself taught me to be wise. being street wise... you cant learn that in school but you will learn it from life itself. the things you learned in school you can also apply that when you go out and work. lise has taught me a lot of wisdom. i also learned a lot from my parents but experience is the best teacher.

There are a lot of lessons in life that are important. But the most important for me was knowing that I am a sinful man. And because of that, I will spend eternity in hell. But Christ gave Himself for me to pay the penalty of my sins, and rose again to show me that if I believe and trust Him, I will have a home in heaven. Therefore, I had trusted him as my Savior and Lord of my life. Good day to you!

the best lesson i learn is from my father

mine is never trust anyone... no matter how close u are or how well u think u know them... they always stab u in the back... grr

I think some of the most importanat lessons that i have learnt, i actually learnt them through mistakes i have made. I dont really want to go into them in detail, but those mistakes changed my life forever. I cant say that i regret them, but if i was to live life again, i am sure i would pick a different path.
