But that is only if we choose to learn. Some, in times of pain or sadness decide it is best for them to blot it out and to put it behind them, while others are mad or frustrated or motivated to figure out the 'what went wrong' and to then take action to learn from it so that it can hopefully be avoided in the future. |
And this brings the question to us. Are you a learner from your mistakes and/or troubles . . . or do you tend to have the same or similar challenges unfold from time to time? If you are the latter, please reread this a few more times. But if you are one who strives to learn from those challenges that arise in everyone's life, then know you are on the right track. As we gain knowledge through our experiences, we grow our wisdom. Then share that wisdom as best you can. It is all the 'why we are here'. |
Proverbs 1: 7 "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge,
but fools despise wisdom and instruction.”
