The 365 Commitment

Jagged Little Pill

I learn. That is what we always do, good or bad. We learn. Incredible how much we learn, but we do. We learn more when we are willing to swallow the jagged little pill and take it on the chin now and then. I made such a decision lately. I learned a lot in the last 6 years, but I stopped learning. So I decided to get back in the ring. So I am brave, but also a little chicken shit.

Listened to Alanis Retro songs tonight.

“You live, you learn
You love, you learn
You cry, you learn
You lose, you learn
You bleed, you learn
You scream, you learn
You grieve, you learn
You choke, you learn
You laugh, you learn
You choose, you learn
You pray, you learn
You ask, you learn
You live, you learn”
