Life Lessons With Lydia (and a Nov/Dec update)

The past few weeks have been exhausting, exhilarating, and educational:exhausting because you run on minimal sleep, exhilarating because life always throws a curveball or three and educational because well, you never stop learning. I have not written in a few weeks but in the meantime, I have been thinking and reflection about what I want to write. There is so much I have experienced and wrestled with the past few months but along the way I have discovered life lessons to abide by and things that naturally, I also struggle with. Ignore my cheesy title, I promise you will find these life lessons very applicable.

An update to things I have learned this year...

A few weeks ago I had written a post about things I have learned this year/ have really made more sense. Reflecting today, I thought of another one...


Number 11: Don't let your "sketch" "friends" meet your nice friends.
Some people are not at all who you think they are. When in doubt, do not let them meet your close friends. I have learned through some mistakes that sketchy people may no longer be part of your life eventually, but because they know your friends, they are still entangled in your life. Never again will I let people who I am not sure about meet my friends. The less mutual ground, the better.
