Lessons of any kind: Life lessons, relationship lessons, cooking lessons, little tips, anything at all.

I ask because on Friday, I had taken the day off to prepare for my daughter’s party. I was invited to another party in a city about 100 miles away. It was for the daughter of a former coworker who I am friends with but I barely know the daughter. I should have declined and just sent a card. Instead, I decided it would be good to attend and it made my day extra busy, took up a big chunk of time and gas, stressed me out and meant very little to the guest of honor and to me, actually. Lesson learned: Unless it’s a close friend or family, don’t kill yourself to attend the party.

How about you? Have you learned any lessons lately?
