What's the biggest lesson that life has taught you?

When I was 14, liked a boy a lot because of his character, good behavior and I respect him a lot. He is my senior. While having a conversation with him once he funnily said โ€œ sunaina, if you reduce your weight a bit you will look more gorgeousโ€. But I took it seriously, without thinking about what is right or wrong I blindly fixed to lose weight for him and I don't know ways to how to lose weight except avoiding food.



I can somehow manage eating food when I was outside but what about at home? When my mother cooked chapati, bread, or whatever food for me without knowing to my parents I used to roll and hide that food in paper and while going to school I used to throw it on the roadside dustbin and this continued for 1 month.


One day my mother prepare lunch for me and kept it in a box to take to school. I thought if food is present with me I will somehow tempt to eat so what I did while leaving my home I went to my apartment cellar and threw the food in Dustbin, watchmen observed this and said to my parents.

In the evening, when I came home from school I somehow came to know that my parents got to know about food matter. My mother said, โ€œIf you didn't like the food you should have to tell me so that I will cook the food that you like and unnecessary don't waste the foodโ€. My father made fun of what I did but never questioned me.


These situations made me realize how much my parents are understanding me, loving me, caring for me and I've decided not to do such stupid things because someone else and understands how much parents are working hard for their children and I should not misuse this freedom. I regret myself and from then I stopped throwing food and I came to know the value of food

From this incident, I learned

I might like a person but that doesn't mean to follow blindly whatever he said and I came to know what is right and wrong and never misuse the freedom given by my parents and don't let them down because of my stupid things.

In the midst of turmoil, I found my unshakeable anchor in God

In the midst of turmoil, I found my unshakeable anchor in God. He was my rock, my fortress, and my savior all at once. Whenever I felt overwhelmed, I would run to Him for refuge, knowing that He would protect me from harm. His presence was my shield, deflecting the arrows of adversity, and His power was the horn of my salvation, announcing victory over my struggles. In my darkest moments, I would cry out to the Lord, who is worthy of all praise and honor. And every time, He would deliver me from the clutches of my enemies - whether they were physical, emotional, or spiritual. He was my stronghold, my place of safety, and my guiding light in the darkness. Through every trial and tribulation, I learned to trust in God's unwavering love and protection. He was my rock, my foundation, and my salvation - and I knew that with Him by my side, I could face anything that came my way. ~ ๐“™๐“ธ๐“พ๐“ป๐“ท๐“ฎ๐”‚ ๐“ธ๐“ฏ ๐“›๐“ฒ๐“ฏ๐“ฎ The Learning Hub 2024
