The School of Hard Knocks
Obviously not the best way to learn your lesson but sometimes things just happen, or possibly go astray and don’t happen the way they are meant. Most times the consequences come heavy to the individual that wasn’t paying attention, or didn’t do enough research or checking to catch a mistake before it occurred, or possibly just innocently naive. There is no time frame or age for the education to the “school of hard knocks”, but the sooner you learn and get out of this particular stage, the better off a person becomes. It comes with a price; maybe a monetary price, or the loss of a friendship. Whatever it may be, once you experience life and learn from “hard knocks” you will surely and hopefully not ever make the same mistake twice. At least you definitely shouldn’t!
