What did you learn today?

When it comes to life and living, everything around us can play a very vital role in teaching us very important lessons about life.

 

I know of an old adage that says that we start dieing when we stop learning. I have taken some time to look at this saying critically and discovered it to be very true.  Come to think of it,  everything in your head now was either learnt,  or a natural endowment.

 

Well,  the natural endowments in a person are always few compared to the learnt ones. Come to think of it this way: nobody taught you how to breathe or how to grow up; how to see or how to hear; even how to die. But definitely,  you learnt how to cook,  how to call your name,  how to dress up and what to wear to different occasions.

When you look around you,  you can actually take a count of the things you were born with and you are quite sure you didn’t learn but can you actually list all the things you have learned to do since you were born? Have you ever tried doing that?

 

Now why am I shouting these things here? If you have ever given it a thought,  you would understand that every thing that comes your way in life is an opportunity to learn a new thing no matter how good,  bad, funny or boring it might look. So when you become aware of this,  you can consciously analyse the things you encounter every other day and squeeze out the lessons that they are meant to teach you.

That little child in your arms can be a teacher to you if you can be able to pay attention to details and observe what he or she has to ‘say’. That scene you just saw as you were going to or coming back from work this morning is a lesson. Therefore, take it to the Mills of your and juice out the great life lessons inherent there.

 

So, what did you learn today?

    • As I write to this site, I have this in mind that I would be receiving payment for my first redemption made in due time. I received it yesterday, making me believe that this site is paying. With such on time payment I receive, I could recommend to my friends, associates and even family members to join with this site for it is reliable when it comes to payment.

      Second, while I was interacting with my fellow LBers here, I had read that they are expressing themselves or reacting to the amount deducted by PayPal from their clean, hard-earned money. I never wasted time to share what I have experience in this issue. Since I have been paid by PayPal, I have a lot of experience as to the mode of payment I experienced.

      Thus. I learned that there two ways of paying a customer in PayPal. One is like a money transfer and it is instant. There is no deduction. The recipient will receive the entire amount he earns. The other one is a mercantile mode of payment. This is usually used when selling products online, or services rendered. There is a reasonable amount deducted to the principal amount. This payment is business-like transaction. It is beneficial to the payor.

    • Very true in life we learn something new every single day, whether it's from a child or an elderly person there is always something new that we did not know. that's why we are always told to be keen with the people around us for you can be saved from something that you thought was good yet it was bad, experiences also are very good teachers.

    • I learn that it is not easy to teach a hyperactive child eho is stubborn, that is what i had learn today

    • I had learned that not people can be trusted. I had put this in mind whenever meeting new individuals. With all the miseries brought by these inconsiderate souls,it makes me realize that we need to love ourselves above any other things in this world.

      Through the years of existence, I had lost people whom I thought are real friends. They were there during the good times of my life. When things get rough, one-by-one left me. It wasn't because I am a bad person. They choose to leave me because it doesn't meet their expectations.
