I have learned that it is better to be happy than to be right.

That it does not matter what other people say , do or think.

That I can't make my happiness depend on other people.

That I have to do what is right for me.

That I should never take things personally.

That everybody has their own view on things.

Suli:

“You will find more people to listen to your Jokes more than to your problems” very true.

“My best friend is my mirror, cus it will never laugh when I cry.” But you can never get relief from your mirror.

I’d say my best friend is the one that pats me on the back when i'm down, assuring me that everything is gonna be alright.

1) The knowledge I have gathered via my religious studies.

2) The realization that human emotions are fickle and prone to change, so one must never assume how a person feels about you today will remain unchanged.

3) That a person needn't be insane or demon possessed to do something truly evil to another.

4) Always be careful when sharing personal information about yourself..what you say can and may very well be held against you!

5) That being patient, tolerant and polite will bring far better returns in the long run.
