Truisms

As long as we are alive, there will always be things to learn. As such we are all students, and will be students all our lives. In school, we were taught the basics of an education. It is after we left school, when we start working in society – that’s where real learning about life starts.

Spare a few moments to give some thoughts to these aphorisms. They teach Life lessons not taught in school. If you can understand them, you will have a better idea of what life is all about. They will help you in the Mastery of Life.

Some of these aphorisms are centuries old. They are the wisdom of sages, philosophers, poets, writers, and people who have been through the hard knocks of life. Learn from them. They will make you a better person – be it in dealing with life or people.
