5/365 what life lesson did you learn the hard way?

there's not just one lesson that i learned the hard way. but something pretty recent happened to me that up until now, what i did still gives me a guilt trip.. and it still shames me everytime i think about it. i i became really close friends with this person, but i became selfish and all i did was take and take in the relationship. after all the harsh words that's been said, i was "forgiven". but i can still hear the disappointment in his voice and in the tone of his letter, that i am just so ashamed of how i acted. all i wanted was a best friend, and because all i can think about is myself, i now have none.

3/365 what's the most sensible thing you've ever heard someone say?

i've received a lot of solicited and unsolicited advice over the years. but the one that would come back to haunt me constantly, are probably the 4 simplest words i'll ever hear: "it's okay. who cares."  it's given me a lot of confidence, whenever i'm reminded of these words. i've slowly stopped being self-conscious of my actions and my thoughts about myself.
