If you die today, what will be the biggest lesson that you have learned? I often hear people--my mom, mainly--talk about the world ending in the year 2012. If that really does happen (and I know it probably won't!), on your dying day which lesson in your life would you call the most valuable, and why?
Another way to ask this question is, on your death bed, if you have one piece of advice to pass on to your children, what would it be?
Thanks!

I don't think you should choose the one biggest lesson you've ever learned. Life is all about the experiences and all of the lessons you have learned and if you reach one big lesson then it was derived from all the little lessons and experiences you have gone through. Plus I don't really know where I would be using these lessons after I die so what is the point?

My biggest lesson I have ever learned is that as much as I like to think and would like to be independent and not need anyone's help, I do need some people in my life to help me through those obstacles I have to face. My parents, friends, family, and even my boyfriend are all great people that I am lucky to have in my life. I have learned my lesson about taking them for granted.

I am not to sure I could pick one lesson that is the biggest one I have learned in my life. If you didn't trip and stumble and learn lessons in your life nobody would be the unique individual they are today. Life is full of lessons, fears, hopes, and dreams. Why focus on just one of these when you have had your whole life to learn?

the biggest leasson that life has giving me is enjoy being a kid, when i was a kid a had no worries, none of the, how am i gona pay for this, i gotta get a job, my girlfriend is jealaus, college. your parents baby you compared to the life as an adult. i see a lot of young people getting ahead of their time, like 12-14 years old kids trying to have sex, saying shit like i cant wait till get older, they wanna put years to their life isted of life into their years, i remember when i was a kid, it was great. All i had to worry about was about doing well in school, and i could do what ever the hell i wanted to, as long as i did not get in trouble. i miss being a kid, all the soccer i wanted. i dont have it that way no more, i got to work my ass off now and got very little time for something that i have great passion for, enjoy being a kid, you will regreat it.

Live life to the fullest. Dont live your life regreting things you did or didnt do. Take the chances live on the edge. Have fun and do what you want, you only live once to make it worth it.

I dont think i could give out a life lesson but if i had to pass on piece of advice on to my children it would have to be just live your life in a way thats gonna make you happy.

I guess the biggest lesson I have learned is listening to people and learning from the past. If you don't listen and learn then the days are wasted.
As far as my children, I would tell them to do as good in life as possible. Help other people that are truely in need. Try to leave a good legacy when you die. Think about what you would want people to say about you. I would want them to say positive things and that I had a good influence with them. Make a difference if you can, sacrafice if you have to.
People will go out of their way to see you and help you out if you need it. I would also tell them that the biggest improvement you can make to your face is a smile and smiles are contagious.
One more thing that I am starting to do now is seeing poeple in nursing homes and checking on elders that you know. It warms them to have company and it makes you feel better all over. I guess to wrap it up I would say be the best person you can be.

I believe that my most valuable time in life would been when I receive my degree after graduating college because there is no one in my immediate or extended family who has been to college and if they have they did not finish so everyone is working some where they dont want to work or on unemployment. I think it would make it easier on me and my family and i can do something i like to do and not necessarily have to do and make a living doing so. I would tell my children to get an educaion because that is something no one can take from you all that other stuff is just material things.

Well I can't just give you one life leson now but maybe when I get older I can but as of now, I will tell you to live life to its absolute fullest. I mean you don't want to get old and say I wish I would have done this or that, you know what I mean and enjoy life, but yet don't be stupid and careless with it. You only got one chances in this world and you never get a second back. Don't waste your time on this world wasting away and don't do stupid things to hurry it on. Also be truthful always tell the truth my friend is it always the best way. And another one take this to heart always be there for your FAMILY and TRUE FRIENDS because there will be time where you need them in your life so bad, and they wil be there for you in the long run as long as you are there for them.

If I could leave anything with my children or for this world, I would write a book. Barring that, I would probably leave with ' nobody is perfect' just because I don't think people should judge or be judged. I have been reading a book lately and the one thing that I have been focusing on for the past 8 months(the writer ask that you reflect then read the next chapter, so I am still reflecting) is the statement "I forget myself for thinking anybody has done anything wrong to me" what she is trying to convey is that we really cant blame our parents for their mistakes, they where learning to be parents and we cant blame our ex for hitting us. They by no means are perfect and secure. I believe the statement to mean I have to get over some stuff in my life and move on with the lessons I've learned.
