People have been sharing the things they learned as they get older and one life lesson rang so much louder than all the rest
It’s never too late to learn how better you might live your life, even at our age. Yes, even at our age!
So we were particularly grateful to @Alina96413300 after they asked this over on Twitter.

Being alone and feeling lonely are 2 different things

if you wouldn’t go to them for advice you shouldn’t internalize their criticism either. when someone is talking shit, you have to consider the source and decide how much you actually need to care. https://t.co/fgxUCRTv5D

All you have are the people you have involved yourself with heavily. Once they are gone, there is usually no way going back since people are too busy living their lives. Do everything you can to ensure that support system stays strong or end up in the worst position in life

Expecting the best from people will wear you down. There's peace and healing in accepting others for who they've repeatedly shown you they are. https://t.co/NyxKqWrYn7

Yesterday does not matter. At all. And yet it dictates the future of so many causing anxiety and stress.
You have to live for the moment to not be depressed in this world. Handle what you can control and be smart enough to know what you can't.

But – and you could surely feel a but coming – one life lesson rang so much louder than all of the others.

Mixing friend groups is like playing culinary mad scientist: sometimes it creates a delicious fusion, other times it's a recipe for disaster!
