Learning Lessons In Life

Life on Earth is filled with lessons, some lessons are more important than others but all lessons have value when we actually learn them.
That's the real problem. Some lessons have to present themselves in our lives over and over, and no matter how many times they come round again we still somehow miss the lesson behind the experience.
If you take a moment to look at your life I'm sure you will find at least one area where you seem to have developed a recurring pattern. Perhaps you tend to date the same sort of person over and over, or perhaps your relationship with a certain person keeps falling into a destructive pattern.
How many times will a man attempt to stick his hand inside of a nest of rattlers before he can expect to be bitten? Most of us would assume that once would do it for any rational person, and most of us do in fact see ourselves as rational people, but even when we find the same outcome over and over we remain committed to the methods we have used in the past.
As we find and examine more and more patterns in our lives we will often find that we have been responding in the same way to the situation each time it arises but we still find a way to believe that this time will be different.
The lessons that are presented to us in our daily lives are there to help us avoid running into the same old negative results, but when we fail to examine those events and find that lesson we can rest assured that the lesson will revisit us in as many forms as it takes to finally get the message across.
What lesson is life trying to teach you?
