Share a lesson you wish you learned earlier in life.#Dailywritingprompt.#Trustingtoomuch.

This is a great question. And one cap 🧒 does not fit all. There are too many lessons that are learned in life. Some of these lessons are great,and some of the lessons learned are not so great. Some learned lessons are more vivid and stood taller than the others and these are definitely unforgettable painful lessons. The one biggest lesson that I wish I had learned earlier in life is that you should not trust people that are so close to you especially your spouse, boyfriend ,girlfriend or family members too much. You have to use your head ,monitor,evaluate and make sure that they genuinely care about you. My partner gave advice that was not favorable to my career advancement . I did not realized that they are not so great. When given management opportunities he objected and he did not want me to accept the offers I accepted with all sincerity but didn’t know that I was shooting myself on the foot. He will give excuses that we will be relocating very soon but we never relocated to anywhere. They might be worried or afraid that you will become better so they do everything to drag you down or retard your growth.

Unfortunately you might not be thinking in that direction. What is it to worry about?.Afterall he is your spouse, you sleep in the same bed and exchange body fluid if you know what I mean. Please love and think with your head.

What you should have done differently?.He threw away all your girlfriends that should have been your clue but you remained clueless. I discovered that much later in my life. He did everything possible to retard my professional growth and my financial growth. I didn’t realize it because I was in love. So I just followed and followed even when I am being suffocated I followed.

Can you change anything now?.You can’t cry over a split milk can you?.I am glad to be able to reverse some of these.Right now I doing great. I wiped my tears and joined the line. The line of so many people who wish that they would have done it the other way around.

Be sure of whom to trust because all that glitter is not gold.Lesson that I have learned later in my life.He is your husband but can be envious. He or she is your family but might be jealous of your success so be wise.Love your family your partner but think and tread with caution.

But you must let go.Love and be loved. God has plans for all of us.Learn to share love and happiness to others even if they are not compassionate. Find some good in them and stick to it.For example you love him or her for some of the things that you have in common hold on to it and find happiness.

Thank your stars that you learned your lessoned before you got to this age.If you learn earlier in life you can make some changes before it is too late. Count your blessings one by one and see what God has done for you. Some are bedridden, some are dead.Be grateful for your life I am.
