Share a lesson you wish you had learned earlier in life.

Goodness me, WP! Where do I start?

There are so many many lessons I wish I had learned much earlier in life.

I really don’t know where to begin…

It would have been useful to know that all is not as it seems. And ain’t that the truth? Hidden agendas, manipulation, masks all but welded to the face of some.

Incidents/events/whatever playing out totally differently to how I perceived them and now only with that wonderful hindsight I get to see the big picture.

Maybe that’s one advantage of getting older..and there aren’t many, I’m finding.

Is it because I’m brutally honest and open that I’ve just believed everyone else was too? Taken them at their word? Believed I was seeing what was actually happening?

Maybe today’s DP can be repeated many times over ( despite me whinging to the contrary) because there appears to be a whole pile of ‘ I wish I’d knowns’ just waiting to be unleashed.
