Learn before you live.

How many mistakes can one make before learning their lesson? How many chances is one given before their cards run out? How much time will one waste until realizing living is the ultimate goal in life? These philosophical questions are redundant yet always seem to go unanswered.

After 21 years, I made the biggest mistake of living before learning. There is much learning I have yet to master to apply to in my life. The word living might be very easy to comprehend, but really think about what the word living means. Does living mean waking up every day? Does living mean being able to function properly? Does living mean being able to accomplish your goals? Does living mean being able to love? These are all generic ideas of what living means.

Every person has their own definition of the word living. There is nothing wrong with alterations, but their is only ONE core meaning of living. To live means to learn. No matter how old you are, how much money you have or where you are from - without learned lessons you will not be able to live naturally. Each day you will force yourself to live because you are impatient and curious about the unknown. Let the unknown become the known to you... NATURALLY. Allow yourself to learn, then live. Understand learning never stops. If learning never stops - you will always be living.
