“There are some years in our lives that we would not want to live again. But even these years will pass away, and the lessons learned will be a future blessing.”

“Maybe some people just aren't meant to be in our lives forever. Maybe some people are just passing through. It's like some people just come through our lives to bring us something: a gift, a blessing, a lesson we need to learn. And that's why they're here. You'll have that gift forever.”

“It's like some people just come through our lives to bring us something, a gift, a blessing, a lesson we need to learn, and that's why they're here...”

“Some of the best lessons we ever learn, we learn from our mistakes and failures. The error of the past is the success and wisdom of the future.”

“we tend to steer our lives in the direction of the lessons we need to learn”
