1. Truth is not what you want it to be, it is what it is. It is either you bend to it or you live a lie.


2. Ugly ducklings have something beautiful to teach us.

What do ugly ducklings have to teach us?
swan born into a family of ducks, who is cast out of the pond because the other animals believe such an "ugly duckling" doesn't belong with them.

After a dreadfully cold and lonely winter, the ugly duckling sees his reflection in the water and realizes that he wasn't a duck after all - he has grown to be the most beautiful swan in the pond.

Its about the search for personal identity rather than conforming to society's norms

Re: 25 Bitter Truths About Life by Nobody: 7:25am On Mar 08, 2020
Life is too short to learn from your own experience.

Live your life by learning, studying and observing.

People has alot to teach you, knowledge is power!

I learn, study and observe; don't allow social media to destroyed you, used it to be productive.
