You will receive a body

You may like it or hate it, but it will be yours for the entire period this time around.

You will learn lessons

You are enrolled in a full-time school called life.  Each day in this school you will have the opportunity to learn lessons.  You may like the lessons or think them irrelevant and stupid.

There are no mistakes, only lessons

Growth is a process of trial and error - experimentation.  The “failed” experiments are as much a part of the process as the experiments that ultimately work.

A lesson is repeated until learned

A lesson will be presented to you in various forms until you have learned it.  When you have learned it you can go on to the next lesson.

Learning lessons does not end

These is no part of life that does not contain its lessons.  If you are alive, there are lessons to be learned.

“There” is no better than “here”

When your “there” has become “here”, you will simply obtain another “there” that will, again, look better than “here”.

Others are merely mirrors of you

You cannot love or hate something about another person unless it reflects to you something you love/hate about yourself.

What you make of your life is up to you

You have all the tools and resources you need.  What you do with them is up to you.  The choice is yours.

Your answers lie inside you

All you need to do is look, listen, feel and trust.
