What have you learned?

Metro · 06-08-2012, 07:45 AM

My late Mother taught me the valuable life lesson when I was no more than 7 or 8 years old...

While at the hearing aid service (to fit my eldest brother with hearing aids) I was given a set of ear phones to wear that dampened sound -- closely replicating what hearing loss was like for my brother.

To this day I recall that experience to remind myself that unless I am in another person's shoes I have no clue what they may be going through at any given moment.

The difference between and obi knot, a lark's head and a running loop. I knew how to make them just didn't know their names.

That you should only play with 1 boat at a time in the bathtub (lol)

That everyday is always a challenge. Today is pretty good, last 2 days seizures have gotten the best of memories. Even medicine are not a sure thing...
If you get anything from this post, remember that being able to remember 2 days ago is a fantastic thing. Cause I don't....
But it's ok, cause not everything is worth remembering...

I've learned that my truck is broken and the codes it is throwing means it could be one of several things bad...anything from the MAF sensor, to the fuel pump (in tank), to the fuel injectors, none of which is cheap to replace.
