what's the toughest lesson life ever taught you... the kind that changd the way you see people, love, or even urself? something that hurt at first but ended up shaping you into who you are today?

[ohsheeT]

Everything we do in life is a lesson I don't care what it is there is a lesson and the older we get we be put up against something for the same lesson but it's deeper if our body I'd our temple. Is because God is with us it's he's church. And he's with us to make us understand we are like him and he wants us to be the best we can be

[unknowngurll1212]

I see what you're saying... every xperience shapes us, and life keeps presenting lessons until we truly understand them. i believe growth comes from recognizing those lessons and striving to becme the best version of ourselves...

[Desi_Butcher]

Stop investing your time in someone who's doesn't keep you a priority.

[unknowngurll1212]

soo true.. i xperienced same thng

[Desi_Butcher]

I can imagine... It's too freaking heartbreaking.. drains you out emotionally. 😭 Wanna connect in DMs?

[Agape93]

The whole notion of you can trust the police, teachers, guidance counselors etc. to help you when you need it, isn't true. I made that mistake and I paid the price. I got no help, and not only did my family refuse to believe me still, my school didn't either.

Reminds me of the episode from The wire Randy because some girl got pissed off about giving it up and the guy was at jerk about it too and Randy took the hit by being a snitch and look what happened his foster mom was burned and I'm assuming she did not survive Randy was in the foster care system with a snitch tag and a year later detector bunk want to go see him Randy was hardcore by that time and Sergeant Carter I believe a piece of him died that day and he became harder too.

@Agape93 that must have been really tough, and I’m sorry you had to go through it. But look at u... u made it through, stronger and wiser. The world may not always be fair, but there are still good people out there who will see and believe you. Keep going, and don’t let the past dim your light. You deserve support, and I hope life brings you the kind of people who truly stand by you... sendin u virtual hugs 🫂

[Agape93]

Thanks. And yeah I have people, some I'd die for and one I'd kill and die for on their whim. He's my life and i owe him everything I have in it.

[unknowngurll1212]

That's really special. It’s amazing to have someone like that in ur life who u can depend on no matter what. I’m sure the bond you share with them will only keep getting stronger. u both deserve that kind of loyalty and love...🤍

[Agape93]

Agreed. He's the only reason I didn't off myself a decade ago. I'd kill for him if he asked it of me. I'd die for him. There's nothing on this earth I wouldn't do for him.

[Simslover92]

Sometimes you have to let the people who you thought were a root in your life go and be a leaf as much as it hurts.

[unknowngurll1212]

That’s deep… and so true. Some people are just seasonal, no matter how much we wanted them to stay. But I guess every goodbye teaches us something, even if it hurts.. b happy alwayss nd take care

[Simslover92]

Exactly! And thanks!

[SteveSmith1985]

@Simslover92

This is beautiful. (and difficult, and true)

[Simslover92]

@SteveSmith1985 thanks!

[MemeSupreme]

that i can't rely on anyone but me

yeah sure people might seem good but they'll fuck you over when you're vulnerable and able to be taken advantage of

[unknowngurll1212]

I get that… life has a way of teaching us who’s truly there for us. It’s tough, but at least now you know your own strength... Just don’t let the wrong people make you lose faith in the right ones.. b happy always.. take care..

[Cuminginside]

People can either teach you how to be independent or throw you to it.

[Blunky]

Some parents can be the worst people in your life. Made me independent from a very young age.

[unknowngurll1212]

That must have been really tough… but becoming independent at a young age also shows your strength. I hope life has brought you better people who truly support and appreciate you... take care

[Blunky]

Thank you. It certainly made me grow up with a very different perspective and priorities. Took a lot of personal development to finally stop blaming the world for my parents behavior and learn it's alright to reach out when needed. Still kind of a last resort to reach out for me but I no longer suffer in silence.

[Subtle_Luminescence]

All it takes is a misunderstanding to turn years of friendship into hostility.

Just can't trust anyone because it's a matter of time till they decide to act on their vices.

[Jersey2]

People with ambition at work but no real talent can be terrible backstabbers and not think twice about it.

[unknowngurll1212]

Oof, that sucks... some people really play dirty to get ahead. but honestly,.., talent nd hard work always win in the long run... did tht xperience make u more cautious about who u trust at work?

[Jersey2]

No, I still trusted people and it occurred multiple times. It wasn’t just me they would screw over, it was everyone and anyone. Senior leaders would know it and did nothing about it until there was a layoff and then these people went although some would always survive while some other good ones went.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

Your best friend in life besides God is money.

Don't trust nor rely people because they can and will turn on you sometimes unexpectedly so.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

* on

[unknowngurll1212]

@hispanic-cool-guy that’s a harsh but real truth... people can b unpredictable, nd money definitely plays a big role in life... sounds like u’ve been through some tough experiences. 🤍

[Nikki1989]

Cheating and abusive males.

My husband is the only man I have ever been able to trust within a serious relationship.

[unknowngurll1212]

That’s really heartbreaking, but I’m glad you found someone who truly values and respects you. Everyone deserves that kind of trust in a relationship.. take care

[Shiprex]

Sometimes being with someone you want to be with isn't always gonna be the best for you if the environment isn't providing for your needs

[serious]

Not to invest in wrong place/company.

[unknowngurll1212]

truee, misplaced investments... whether in people or opportunities—can be costly. but ig at least every mistake comes with a lesson, right.. nd take care

[serious]

Yes. That is right

[Fireguy17]

get back up and keep er movin.

[unknowngurll1212]

exactly! Gotta keep moving no matter what... take care

[fish5505_87]

Death is a big part of life!

[unknowngurll1212]

True, it’s one of the hardest but most inevitable parts of life..

[msc545]

Love and lust are not the same thing.

[unknowngurll1212]

True, but a lot of people learn that the hard way..

[wkhan_87]

There are a lot of for me tbh

[wkhan_87]

But one solid lesson i learnt that almost every person is selfish in the world.

[unknowngurll1212]

yhhh, that's a hard truth to swallow... but i guess it just teaches us to be careful who we trust and value the genuine ones even more. Stay real, always...

[wkhan_87]

Yeah agreed 👍

[jahaims]

You can't help someone that doesn't want it
