When i was still a veryyyy small girl (cant remember how old i was then sha), i use to browse thru different copies of Vanguard newspaper to get to my favourite section, which was "what life has taught me", and in my head, thinking that when i grow up i would send my own contributions, Ndi nkem na so i begin ask any big person wey i know say 'what has life tot u??? some of dem go just look me laff waka go but some go answer me, and i go write am down, if d one wey i nor fit spell' i go tell them to write am by dem self :-)
omo u need to see my jotter, It was my special scrap book.
newayz i dont think that section still exists (abi?) but over the years, life has taught me so much.... from my home, neighbours, school, friends, novels, work, nollywood even from blogger, Here are some of them :
# Life has taught me not to rely on anyone except God
# Life has taught me that everything happens 4 a reason
# Life has taught me that prisoners sometimes become kings eg Obj
# Life has tot me that some people will walk over the top of you to get ahead
# Life has taught me never to do anything that can warrant a mother's curse
# Life have taught me that I have not failed, I've just found another way that won't work
# Life has tot me that your mindset influence your action and your action determines your life.
What about you???????

Your #1 life lesson is also my number one.
It's funny how we fall in love with our "other halves" but yet they cannot complete us. Borrowing & revising the line from the Maguire movie, "God completes me."
"Life has taught me never to put a 100% trust in the abilities of any man." When disappointments come, I am already predisposed to the idea that we all have flaws...and big ones too.
