We all have been through good times and bad times. I think that bad time is the best teacher as it teaches you a lot of things about life that no one else can teach you. For example, it teaches you who your real and true friends are. Do you agree? What else do you think bad time teaches us?

even though i do not wish bad times on you or me, i agree with what you have said. Bad times/ challenges are always a great teacher. People who stick with you in bad times can be trusted for rest of your life. My understanding & relationship with my wife became strengthened when we survived the bad times together. We also become stronger from the fact that we gain immence confidence in our own abilities to bounce back.

You are right, but is there any more advantage of this bad time apart from identifying true friends?

I agree. It is the time when we rethink about our decisions and try to get prudent answers. It is the time when we say "What has went wrong". It is the time that we make and change decisions. It is the time when we correct the wrong things. It is the time that makes us see how vulnerable and weak we are. It is the time when we think about new avenues and possibilities .There are many more things.

I thikn that when we have the bad times we do learn who our true friends are and it helps us learn how to deal with similar situations and how to remain strong in hard times.

yeah i agree.. my mom always said to be glad you grow up poor because then you dont know what you cant afford to miss it.. where as if you always had money and then have hard times you go nuts missing things and think things are awful when they may not be to most people etc..
