Time teaches me everything I should have known
The most important thing in living right now is for you to be able to gather data and collect knowledge from your mountainous of experience since you are a child until now. Who could teach us best lessons? What lessons we should go after? Are the current knowledge we have enough to satisfy our needs and will it be helped us in the time of survival? My teacher told us that knowledge is power because when you have a lot of knowledge then you cannot be fooled easily by others.
You cannot be easily swayed by the people's intents and opinions. All you can do is to allow yourself gather up everything you can so that your curiosity will be satisfied. We cannot distinguish the best and ultimate teacher in life because we have different lives and our lives have different culture, time, beliefs, religious and school teachings. So that it is not the same at all. But, as a person we are always looking for new knowledge and experiences especially those people who like challenges.
I saw this article from ate @Jeaneth about Surviving 101: The Best Teachers In Life and I think this is a good blog to answer too. If you like to read her article, you can click the link from the her title and it will be directed to your screen. I am so excited for this blog.
Failures
In our lives, failing is inevitable. We cannot avoid failing because we are not perfect. There is a time for your successes, winnings and championships, but always remember that failing is always a part of it. No matter what happens, take failures as an opportunity to grow as a person. It will develop you and nourish your skills and talents. Whatever you do, seek improvements and innovations for it will be the signs that you are maturing too. Isn't it a best teacher?
Mistakes
You may wonder what is the difference between failures and mistakes. Aren't they common or similar together? Failures are the things you didn't intentionally made and triggers by your environment. Meaning, it is not within your control. While, mistakes could be either intentional or not. It is always within your hands because you choose an option. Mistakes are probably teaching us to be wise and analyze the options we have so that we do not regret our choices afterwards.
Empty Pockets
Why empty pockets teaching us? Actually, it doesn't teach us anything, but giving us a moment of realizations that we should work or move our body to earn money. We cannot live without money nowadays. Most of everything should be bought with money and if you don't have money then what things you can buy for yourself? I think empty pockets give us an opportunity to push our laziness and sealed it somewhere. It hurts to see that we don't have money at all. As a student, my pocket is always empty because I am not working or have sidelines. I cannot buy what I want especially buying skin in Mobile Legends. Hehe.
Rejections
As a youth, we often have a lot of rejections. Rejections at home, at school and within friends. At home, my rejection that I always experience is that my mother doesn't allow to me to go out with friends when there is a special occasion. I feel rejected because it is my friend's birthday. At school, the best example of rejection is when you submit your research title and always been disapproved by your teacher. That is really hurts. Sometimes, you will feel rejected within your friends when they don't want you to be belong in the group. But boys don't do that.
Time
At last, time teaches us everything we should have known because it covers all things. We cannot hide and stop the time itself. We are continuing to move forward even though you are happy, sad, broken, grieving, and disappointed. Time taught us whatever happen in life, remember that it will continue spinning and ticking. As much as we wanted to stop it at all cost, but it will not happen at all. Time pushes us to have breakthrough in life and that is amazing.
To sum it up, lessons and teachings will always be part of growing up. We have different sources of teachers in life, but one thing we all have in common. We choose, we act, we speak, we break, we learn and we move forward because when you stop moving indefinitely, you are the sole loser. And I know you don't want to be the loser in this one and only life we have been given.
