We are all taught lessons throughout life.....some by choice and others by fate, it takes a wise individual to not only survive these encounters but to learn and give back what was given to them
You go throughout life learning and experiencing knowledge (good as well as bad) and depending on what you take from it, shapes you into the person you'll ultimately become. There are some who have these experiences upon them only to not truly learn from it, instead they see it as some form of payback for all years they were without it and now seek out to claim the rest of it as their own not caring about who they hurt in the process.....now some will say I'm doing this for my kids sake and to show them that only the "weak" give up the chance to strike when the opportunity comes around.........funny thing about knowledge,the moment you take it for granted is when you miss out on the chance of a lifetime and once it passes you by, the odds of it coming your way again are almost always 0
Which is why it's important to "give back" what the universe places in your life...........in other words "see a penny pick it up all the day you'll have good luck" has had more meaning to me than it ever did and I make sure to "replace" the pennies that I pick up cause someone else may need a lil luck to help them make it through
