Hello Lavender.Honey Author Icon. Welcome to WDC! I'm Charlie. Thanks for sharing your writing with us. I hope this review finds you well. *Smile*


Title/General Thoughts/Subject Matter:
This is a cute idea for a list. We learn so many things throughout life and some of them are important enough to write down. I chose to read this because the title intrigued me and I thought it would be interesting to see the list of things you've learned while growing up and how it would compare to my own. Plus, we're all into lists around the site right now- really, they're everywhere! *Laugh*


What Worked: I thought some of these were really awesome life lessons. My favorite was number 9: It never hurts and it is never too late to apologize. Even if you didn’t do anything. It’s better to make peace than be bitter and cold. I tend to be a big apologizer. Even if I don't think I've done something wrong, I'll swallow my pride and apologize if someone tells me that I've done something hurtful or bad. It doesn't hurt me to apologize and if it makes the other person feel better, it's worth it, in my opinion.

A lot of these were good ideas in general, although not all of them would make my personal list of essentials. Many are aimed at women's issues though and I think that's really important as well.


Technical Issues/Suggestions: I think there might be a typo in the last one? Push to stay true to you and, and push for joy! The double "and" is weird. Actually, the whole wording of the last one didn't read smoothly to me. Living comfortably isn't necessarily happy. I'd change this to: Living comfortably isn't necessarily living happily.


Final Thoughts: Overall, I thought this was a cool idea and I agreed with many of the life lessons on your list. Thanks again for sharing with us!


Best wishes,
