Lessons Learned

You should always try to learn from mistakes... Now I didn't say learn from 'your' mistakes. Just mistakes in general, made by everybody... There's a saying - "Those who don't know their history, are bound to repeat it"... in other words, you'll end up making the same stupid mistake again.

So what am I talking about..?

I want to know how many people actually read this blog and learn a lesson about relationships? How many people have ever heard a friend complain about their spouse/partner, and then did their best not to make the same mistake?

To tell you the truth, I've listened to many personal problems. And I've given out so much advice that I could probably compile it into a "Life for Dummies" book. But I have never once learned the lesson and did something about it.

I don't think I'm the only one. I have a friend who will give me the same advice I gave him before. Never fails, each and every time. LOML is the same way... when I have my insecurities, she has her 'standard advice'... but when she has the same insecurity, I have to try to convince her to take her own advice.

But some people are able adjust accordingly... SL told me a couple of weeks back that she refrained from 'chewing out' her boyfriend over a simple incident because she thought of me and my stories. Amazingly, my 'suffering' has brought happiness to a total stranger (SL's boyfriend). The guy was speachless when she was 'civil' about the issue...

At least I have made the world a better place!! :D

Now, I need to start learning from everyone's mistakes... so what did you guys do wrong today?
