Advice, Truths, and Insight from Those Who Have Lived Before Us
16 lessons from the school of life
The real truths in life are usually discovered after we’ve taken a lot of wrong turns or spent too much time pursuing the transitory and superficial. Regrettably, these revelations typically arrive too late - their cautionary signals appearing only when we’ve compromised our health or family relationships.
Thankfully, we don’t have to personally experience all of life’s hardships and disappointments to gain the perspective and wisdom that comes from living a long life. Instead, our previous generations can be an excellent source of suggestions to help us get the most from our lives, while avoiding the majority of pitfalls along the way.
