The greatest lessons of my life

So confused at a crossroad and wondering...

The greatest lesson life has taught me was to fight to the end until getting what I wanted or losing every hope of winning it. This lesson almost changed my life... It was what made me write my first book. That was the story of the boat that lost its life spending it at the shore...
Unfortunately, 2 years later, life changed its mind!!!!! And taught me all the opposite ... Another lesson greater then the first one that came as if to correct the previous! It taught me through Santiago and the Alchemist, through all the stories of Victor Hugo, that, once you reach your goal, no matter how hard you have been fighting for it, if you find that you don't want it or need it anymore, do not hesitate to let it go!!!!..., so simply, without regrets, without feeling that you have lost your life!!! NEVER REGRET: IF IT'S GOOD, IT'S WONDERFUL... IF IT'S BAD... IT'S EXPERIENCE!!!
Am I a contradictory person? Should I chose one of these 2 lessons? And which one is the best?.... I DON'T KNOW!!!!

It seems valuable to do both at the same time, if this makes any sense :) If we set out to accomplish something, we have our initial intention, but we may find along the way that what we seek to accomplish is not worth the energy and the effort. So, observation and intuition as our guide, we may have to make the choice of letting go, without judgment upon ourselves. In this case, it is not giving up, but enlightening ourselves and removing the burdens we put on ourselves. These are my thoughts. Excellent questions....

This is very good. I think you have made a great point. I know after reading this it made me think. Sometimes, I am not sure where my life will lead. What am I supposed to do? Life does give us lessons that should not be ignored! Great way of expressing yourself!
