What others learn at the age of 5 many others learn at 20 what others learn. At the age of 10 others learn at the age of 27 . we are all in a mysterious journey of life that hit hard at everyone. If you fail to learn you will pay greatly . but if you learn then you forgo suffering. I believe that depression is the result of failing to learn certain life emotional skills leading to sickness. Some do learn this skills quiet early on in life and spend most of their lives absolutely happy.but others we spend the rest of our lives unhappy due to undealt with emotions. It is at this year of 27 of my life that I'm learning emotional skills and how to deal with them. I also realised that my age mates did learn how to deal with emotions quite early on in life. But hey thank God I finally arrived and am intend on blissful next years of my life.

Life is one large education, at sixty eight I am still learning as life can throw googlies even when we get old, We are learning up to our Death, it is a constant examination room where we get our certificates at moment of death.

Enjoy life, keep learning, the secret is never be to critical of yourself and remember to understand someone else you need to be able to walk in there Shoes.

I totally agree. I grew up in an alcoholic home. It was dangerous to show emotion or express a need. So I entered adulthood stunted in that area. I was a high achiever so I made life work until my 40's. I was raising two kids on my own, one being autistic and very aggressive. I started to fall apart. I had a breakdown two years ago. I am just now beginning to see how stunted I have been. When things happen, I feel like I did as a kid. I should have had those feelings then, but I wasn't allowed to. I go to Adult Children of Alcoholics meetings and that has helped me more than anything else.
