If I refuse the lessons that arise from life, it will become a cruel, merciless tyrant. It will snatch away my time, my options, my ability/inclination to help others, as well as my fulfillment.
But if I do my best to learn, then life will become a harsh—but fair—teacher. I even stand a chance of making it my ally.

That’s where everyone gets confused, haha! They like to keep all the stuff in that ironically destroys the spirit of the message.

Yep, life does not suffer stupidity well. It will continually whip your ass until you learn something. So, might as well pay attention and learn something…

Absolutely. Preferably the first time, although the first time can sometimes be a fluke and warrant a second attempt.
