"What is one life lesson you will never forget?"
Each direction you turn, life awaits a new lesson for you. Whether they are learned the hard way or through experience, each lesson is so valuable in how you handle decisions. I sent out a form to anonymous users asking them about the most unforgettable life lesson they are going to carry with them forever. To those who are reading this article, I hope you can take something away from these lessons and hopefully apply them to your lifestyle.
These are the responses I received:
1. To treat others as you would like to be treated
2. If you love someone, protect your heart. They may not feel the same way about you. Never push yourself to try to make someone feel the the way you do
3. You can't control someone else's addictions
4. Never lie. If you don't want to talk about something, don't talk about it

6. Past mistakes do not define who you are!!
7. Be happy
8. Be kind to everyone
9. Realizing what I deserve
10. Love, accept, and respect yourself. Know that everyone is different and that is a good thing.
11. Some of the best things happen in your life when you’re not looking for them to happen!

13. That to be happy with yourself, you have to learn to let go of all the hate and sad feelings in your life and just live one day at a time
14. Learning that the hardest times will eventually pass if you have the mindset to change the negativity into positivity
15. Always tell someone you love them and never be afraid of your feelings. You never know when the last time you speak to someone will be
