life lessons

      Everything in life can teach you something if you let it. It is always useful to look at things from a new perspective. And what it teaches you can be something simple, but something you needed to recognize. Many people have showed me many different things. Like how important justice alongside mercy is, or how "being real and saying it to your face" is not the same when you never actually say it to their face, or being respectful also means not always saying what you're thinking because, even if it's true, it's disrespectful. There are so many things to learn in life and it's time we fully grasp that and begin living life in a way we ought to. :)

Just a little thought I wanted to share tonight. :)

Anyways, the point of this post is to give a book suggestion/review of one of my *favorites*. It is not considered a classic, like a Jane Austen novel, but it is certainly a classic to me! The King Raven Trilogy - Hood , Scarlet , & Tuck       This series is absolutely incredible. The storyline is based on the legend of Robin Hood, but the details of all of our beloved Robin Hood "facts" have been changed. Robin's name is not Robin but instead Bran (Rhi Bran y Hud, to be exact), the story is set in Wales, and there is no Prince John or Richard the Lionhearted. After reading it in this new light, though, despite everything being changed, this is...
