80% of our decisions in life come from the
experience of the past.

counseling has experience heartbreak,
what I ask them is what they have learnt

experience is far more than what they have
lost, because it will help guard them
against similar one.
 I am of the opinion that in many matters of
life, experience is never meant to be the
best teacher. Experience should teach;
however, it should not be made the reality
because what walked for an individual may
not do the same for another.
 Over time I have come to a conclusion that
the past is a core determinant of the
future.

the classes you have to pass its examine
to move to the next class.
 Everyone that reads this write up has the
right to prove me wrong; people who have
gone through heartbreaks over and over
again are those who did not sit down to
understudy why their relationship failed in
the first place.
 How is your present life like? If you are not
enjoying any aspect of it, ruminate on past
events that may have lead to the present
predicament; learn from it and leave the
rest.
