Facets of Life

Life is a learning process. We will learn until our last breath, and not have learned all, or enough. However, if we are attentive to the words and experiences of the people who have gone on before us, or those who had been through life’s hard knocks at some point, we might be able to speed up our learning process, and at the same time, avoid some heartbreaks and difficult moments.
