Life lesson is that life is full of unexpected events, sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad, but it all depends on how you handle it. Sometimes everything will be fine and sometimes you will fall, but that's okay because all you have to do is get back up and start again. I learned this lesson when I re-evaluated what happened during the track meet and came up with two results. I could have run away, I could have felt embarrassed, and I could have cried about it, but instead of doing those things I had picked myself up and continued. I began to realize that when things happen I have the power to control how I react and I can control the outcome
