Facts Of Life. (not about puberty, nor about birds and the bees!)

stomach it, tolerate it, live with it. whatever. it's always right there either in your face, hidden behind, or punching you right in the gut.

1. we never seem to learn. mistakes made arent evolving to the lessons they are supposed to be.

2. issues buried in the past arent that deep in the grave and it's easy to be dug up.

3. that the grass is greener and lusher on the other side is merely and optical illusion and you're bound to be disappointed if you ever wander.

4. we always think that our own problems signal the end of the world. or the end of life. but obviously, they dont.

5. the fine line between making love and having sex is the difference between the emotional intimacy between the two.

6. love is great, but not powerful. restlessness or other pathetic excuses are quite enough to shatter its essence. discipline is one of the keys of a lasting relationship.

7. feelings are complicated. dont even try to comprehend them. ( came across this nice quote! Just because you love someone, it doesnt mean you have to be involved with the,. love is not a bandage to cover a wound. -hugh elliot.)

8. studying is important. people without paper certificates make it because not only do they have elements of creativity and risk, but also damn bloody good luck! which most of us dont.

9. contentment is difficult to achieve. but once you stop all your greed, envy, yearning etc, you're a step towards happiness.

10. everyone takes our basic body functions for granted. (when was the last time you pretended to be blind just so you can appreciate your gift of sight?)

11. everyone takes everyday miracles of nature for granted. (when was the last time you ever really looked at the leaves and trees?)

12. everyone takes our ways of life for granted. (when was the time you silently paid gratitude to the geniuses who invented all the lights and phones and internet and rice cooker and gas cooker)
