Today’s prompt from Think Kit wasn’t doing it for me, so I decided to peruse the prompts from previous years. This one is from 2013:
A Little Bit of Learning
Did you get any good advice or learn a valuable lesson this year? What was it?
The most valuable lesson I have learned in recent years has been this: Relationships have a lifespan, and the key to surviving the hurt and pain that come from an ended relationship---whether that of friends, lovers, or even mentor and student, is to focus with gratitude on what was good, what you gained, and the lessons you learned and can carry with you into the future. 
That is such bull. Relationships change. Relationships only end when you give up. Unless the connection impacts your health, it can continue in a different way that still enriches your life for the better.
