Life Lessons: Things We Learned But Never Understood (part 3)

As kids, wise sayings taught us how our words shape our outlook. “Take it with a grain of salt” means don’t let negativity stick. “Toughen up” tells us to be resilient. “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me” teaches that inner strength is key. Let’s remember these lessons in adulthood, inspiring positivity and perseverance in our words and actions.

Grief and Healing

Grief is a natural human experience. Facing emotions may be challenging, but it can help with coping and healing. Avoiding emotions can result in sadness, bitterness, and anger, leading to physical issues. Processing grief leads to personal growth, empathy, and deeper appreciation for life. It strengthens relationships, provides support, and offers a chance for introspection. Intentionally processing grief leads to a more fulfilling life.
