Valuable Learning

Experience is one thing which nothing can replace. But it's important that we learn our lessons from our experiences, good and bad. I have my own share of my experiences. But the experience that I had recently gave me so many lessons on life. Some people could dispute with. But nevertheless these lessons will prevent one from being a emotional idiot.

Try your best not to care for people
Why is it that we should care for people? We are not going to derive any benefit out of it. The world has become so fast that there is no time for people to appreciate or to look back with gratitude to those who care about them. If this is the case in this mechanized world then why the hell one should care about people. If we find it hard not to care about people, channelize all the care that you want to shower on your family and very 'few' close relatives and friends. Those who care for people are perceived as those who can't keep pace with the world.

Never assume friends will always be friends.
They say nothing is permanent is this world. Everything in this world is prone for change. When enemies can't be enemies forever, friends also need not be. There is simply no point in being emotional in this regard. Sometimes it might so happen that with distance your friends might move on with their life that they cant afford to spare you the time towards you which they would have when you're around with them.

Never be part of a group which you find hard to identify yourself with.
It's hard to be yourself with a group of people who are not of your kind. If you are a calm person never go out with people who are of opposite nature. It is alright to be with two or three people of your opposite nature at the same time. But never be part of a group in which there is more no. of people who are of opposite nature since a person's behaviour changes if he/she is part of a group. You might feel out of place when you go out with such people as part of a group. Peer pressure makes us to go even if we don't want to but it would be good if we resist that.

Always behave yourself when you're in a group.
No matter how close you are with a person, when you are in a group its better to keep one's calm. Other people in the group might make fun of being formal. But its better to take such things in our stride and maintain our calmness. It will definitely save you from larger embarrassment from your own group.
