Growing up, people would always say "You learn something new each day.". Well; I am learning that it is true. The word New, means "lately coming into knowledge, fresh or unused, unaccustomed, or recently/lately". So it doesn't necessarily mean that you have never before heard something but that it has now finally become knowledge. And the word Learn means “to gain by experience, to become informed of or acquainted with". So really the new thing I/we learn is just some fresh information. Or it can also be something that we are unaccustomed to that we gain by experience. I don't believe that when you hear something you learn it. You learn it once you can apply it physically or mentally. You learn it once you understand it. I also believe that everything happens for a reason, and that we come to realize things on certain days for a reason. So everyday I will be sharing with you the new thing that I learn or realize, hoping that you can learn from it as I did.

Feel free to comment or even post about your own realization or new thing that was learned.

I have it in my pocket, sorry it's hard to see

I was sitting on the couch today and a friend was on the other couch while we watch the Ou Osu game. She said how she was cold and wanted a blanket and right after that my sister pointed to a blanket that she was sitting on. I thought it was kind of funny because I bet that happens to us all the time. I bet there are many times when we want what we already have, like money for instance. Many times we make enough to keep us going yet we still want more. Or say we have a decent coat but we still say we need one as we ware our current one. I just thought I was interesting how we want what we already have. Next time I think how I want something I am going to step back to see if I have it or even need it for that matter.
