So you have started walking OR as your grandparents describe it, "more of a drunken stumble". It's amazing to experience all these things. How they just happen and there is no looking back. You, we, everyone just keeps on barreling foward. I wish I could bottle that feeling and those moment in time and just sit around and relive them forever. Ok so that sounds a little mushy. You will understand in a couple decades. I also wish I didn't miss half of them because of work.
Anyways I have been trying to put a little of a timeline in these things as of late. This way you know where you were when I wrote them but since the over all feel of this project is to enrich your life and help you unterstand how best to experience it I really am just writing to show you a couple points or ideas to think about:
| 1. | There are no mistakes, only lessons. Growth is a process of trial, error, and experimentation. The "failed" experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately "work." |
| 2. | Lessons are repeated until they are learned. A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it. When you have learned it, you can go on to the next lesson. |
| 3. | Learning lessons does not end. There's no part of life that doesn't contain its lessons. If you're alive, that means there are still lessons to be learned. |
| 4. | "There" is no better a place than "here." When your "there" has become a "here", you will simply obtain another "there" that will again look better than "here." |
| 5. | Other people are merely mirrors of you. You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love or hate about yourself. |
| 6. | Your answers lie within you. The answers to life's questions lie within you. All you need to do is look, listen, and trust. |
| 7. | You will forget all of this |
