We all get life lessons, whether we choose to acknowledge them or not. If we ignore them, they will reappear. Some people think they have bad luck. Not true! What they see as bad luck is actually the lesson they've been ignoring, popping up again. Reminder: lessons are gifts meant to enrich our lives by teaching us things such as forgiveness (especially for ourselves), making better choices, learning to love ourselves and sometimes our lessons force us into dealing with the emotional baggage we have cleverly buried from sight.
