A Few Things I've learned

A few things I have learned

One of the benefits of aging are the lessons you learn, and not necessarily the hard way.  Here are a few that I’ve learned, some just in the last few weeks.

• “I’m sorry, please forgive me” goes a long way, maybe not to the end but at least enough to talk about it.
• Most 18 year old kids don’t understand money, even if you think you taught them.
• Silence can truly be golden, especially if the person just needs a shoulder to cry on.
• End users aren’t your clients, people who need you and want to use your service are.
• Your true friends will love and accept you, even when you screw up royally!
• If you treat adults like adults, most will respond in the same way.
• That if your kids are mad at you daily, you are probably doing something right.
• Everyone needs someone that they can tell anything too, regardless of what it is.
• Best friends are that, probably because you don’t have to live with them.
• Lastly, at the end, you don’t think about how much you worked but how important family is.

It’s a good day when you realize you don’t know everything, but a lot of the people know can fill in the blank spots.
