Experience is a series of attitudes and feelings that human being builds up over a lifetime . In my opinion , personal experience is the best way to learn because a good life lesson wakes you up to reality , it helps to realize that life is not what you want and that you have to adapt and to live respecting moral values . Man builds a wide variety of life experiences to old age , is why young people can draw from the wisdom teachings and elders who go through life had many trials and hardships of the past. Man is a being who was endowed with the instinct of preservation and protection and are able to learn from a bad experience to avoid in future .
