Life Lessons

Today was one of those days when I had a talk with my daughter that made me want to throat punch someone.  I hate that anyone can make ANY of them feel inferior or sad over things they have no control over.  Because the person who she's upset over is intentionally making bad choices, I want to throat punch them....and maybe donkey kick them. Hmmmmm

With that being said, it's also a great opportunity to teach a few important lessons to her....

1.  People come and go; some are around for life and some for a season.  Sometimes they're just in your life to teach you a really hard lesson and sometimes they're there to celebrate with you. 

2.  Life's hard and just when you think it's getting easier, it throws a curve ball.

3.  Life's not fair.  Nothing about life is even close to fair.

BUT....

If you focus on the positives, not the negatives, you'll have a better chance at happiness.  If you smile when you want to cry, you'll have a better chance of losing the blues.  If you talk it out and cry, it'll hurt for a second but it'll make you feel better in the long run. :)
