Has Anything Interesting Happened to Me?

In the course of my lifetime, of course interesting things have happened to. Often though, I don't fully understand the meaning until much later. Sometimes it is years before I understand what exactly happened. Because I missed the boat a lot a few years ago, I try to make sure that I have the schedule all the time now. What I mean is that I am always looking for life lessons. I believe in karma or that you get what you give, you reap what you sow... however you want to put it. I keep thinking that some things happen for a reason. You meet people for a reason, that they meet you for a reason. Events happen for a reason whatever. Sometimes you learn an easy lesson, sometimes a hard lesson. Sometimes you get a chance to make up for something from the past with something in the now. Sometimes you are the teacher, sometimes the student. Sometimes you are the innocent bystander. Sometimes you learn at the expense of others, sometimes others learn at your expense. I try to learn from my mistakes. It helps though if you realize that you've made a mistake. If you don't get it, then you don't get it until you do get it. That's what I mean about not figuring it out for awhile. If it were sunny and warm, I wouldn't be thinking like this. I still wonder what I want to be when I grow up.
