Thank you all for the great suggestions!

I 'wish' that we all came with manuals for life, and learned them during our school years. I feel now like I'm coming upon some very obvious life lessons, the one that's sticking out now is gratitude. My main wish was that I had been more regularly grateful, as a daily practice, rather than constantly looking forward, to appreciate also what I have.

Though if I put it into perspective, I realize that I was busy moving forward at that time, and NOW is the perfect time to be reminded to be grateful, and can put that into daily practice now that I have some quiet time.

Akashic, I like that analogy of the order of lessons. I see the same now, that life, just like school, has chapters and phases that move along in perfect sequence, and to know that whatever knowledge I had at grade 3 level was perfect for that stage, and not to wish that I had known grade 5 material at that time, because it may not have been relevant or applicable at that time. All in perfect sequence!!


Thanks again
