Lessons Learned and Lessons Taught

by alyssa-mcwilliams

I never understood, why being quite some days, is sinomis with being upset. Some days I just like to watch, I find that if most people took the time to observe, we would have a lot more optimis. Sometimes you need to get out of your own head, and just watch and listen to others, because that is the only way you'll ever understand them. Some days you need to stop talking, over all of the voices, that are trying to teach you so many lessons. When you are talking, you are not learning, but when you stop, that's where the lesson begins. You don't always have to be the one telling the punch line, to enjoy a friends smile. People are too busy trying to do, to actually be. To just sit with your friends, watch them interact, and enjoy being there.
