UPDATE: October 13--The last few times I have tried to go to the website mentioned in this post it has been unavailable. Sorry if I've led you on a wild goose chase!
Yesterday I ran across this website titled "Things I have learned in my life so far." You can illustrate the thing you have learned and send it to this site and they will post it. Very interesting and hard to stop looking at all of the things people have shared. (a few, but not many, were a little weird and not really for young eyes)
My favorite was, "My attitude, my choice and I'm choosing happy."
The sight got me thinking/wondering--what have I learned in my life so far? (have to check back for a future post for that nugget of wisdom)
What have you learned in your life so far? Please leave it in a comment or email me (to do that you must know me and already have my email address). I'll try to compile our own list of things we've learned.

What have I learned?
1. You never know where life is going to take you and what you are going to find once you are there. Places I have lived since graduating from Happy High: Missouri, Florida, Maryland, Colorado, Nebraska, Iowa and now I live in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Canada. After high school I wouldn't have believed that I would live as far north as Nebraska, much less Canada.
2. Its a small world. I am always surprised to find someone in my travels that knows where Happy, Texas is and even more surprised when they know someone there.
3. Sometimes you get what you need, not what you want.
There are many other life lessons, but those are my favorites.

What have I learned?
1. Nothing is too big for God.
2. Life is never how you pictured it.
3. Life is too short to try to please everyone. You can't please everyone, and if you try, you probably won't please anyone, much less yourself.
4. It's easy to hold a grudge, and a lot harder to find a way to forgive and move forward.
5. There's no place like home, and no one like family.
