We become more mature when we face many trials in Life, Yes or No?

Question

When every thing goes on smoothly, we never gather any real experience. It is only when troubles and turmoils assail us, we start introspecting. The process may be slow. Nevertheless we learn many valuable lessons of life. Is it Correct or wrong?

Answer 1

Correct.

Answer 2

Yes

You are very correct sir. Best Teacher is Experience.

Answer 4

True, it is because we take heed to anything that challenges our minds. When in school, after going thru a traumatic experience, when challenged by anything. When things go smoothly, it doesn't challenge our minds. We're in a calm state. But let things start ripping and rolling, brain waves are off the chart.

We should have ENOUGH Trails in Our Life

correct

Answer 8

Some people become 'immature' when faced with life's trials etc. ~ viewing or perceiving these trials and pressures as ''personal'' and react childlike to them ~ the 'Why me' and, 'It's not fair' etc.

There is no One Singular Answer to your question ~ mainly because there are an awful lot of people who are recipients of an awful lot of varying educational standards, and who react by varying degrees to 'problems' in general.

Answer 9

you would think so but some people never learn..

Answer 10

You're 100% correct.

Without challenges, what would life be? There would be no fun if there were no pain. Humans are a complex species that need to compare things in order too see and understand them. Happiness would be a very useless, neglected and unheard of emotion without pain and sadness.

As you go through obstacles in life, you start to see things you didn't see before, and that- my friend, is the beauty of life.

We all go through troubles, and sometime we get a little burnt while going through them, but d**n is it worth it at the end?

Answer 11

I do agree with you for the most part.  I do think that even through time when things run smoothly we gather experience although slight we are always gathering.

In times of trouble and turmoil i feel we gather a greater sense of self, and through these times it helps to define our character. I don't think your question has a right or wrong, just a matter of opinion.

Good question i hope i answered you.

Answer 12

yes but too many troubles simultaneously can overwhelm us and put us into depression. a balance of the difficult and the easy is really important for us to mature properly.

Answer 13

only if you have the strong will to learn from it. if the trials are to hard most will crumble and break down. they will hide from their troubles and avoid them as much as they can.

i should know i went through it for a long time

Answer 14

yes you correct

Answer 15

Absolutely... But only when we learn from our trials and implement them in our thoughts and actions.

Answer 16

indeed this is the time we become more refined, that is of course if we look upon each situation with a mature view by thinking: "What am I meant to learn from this, God, what is it you are trying to teach me?"  

Each person interprets things differently and I think basically everything in life is dependent on the only freedom to man and that is the freedom of CHOICE.

With choice you can either choose positive, or negative, good or bad, white or black, warm or cold etc, etc.  The thing is there is no in between area. You cant put a little evil in good, because then good is not good any more, it is tainted and visa versa; or you cant add a bit of black to white, because then white is no longer white but a shade of gray! You cant put a bit of negative into positive because then positive is not positive any longer.  Clearly there are no in betweens yet choices have to be made! If you choose negative, negative draws on negative and leads to destruction where as positive draws from positive and leads to constructiveness. My point is what we choose when facing trials is up to each of us and whatever we choose to do with the situation will have a consequence, either a good one or a bad one, depending on our state of our feelings, thoughts and emotions.

Answer 17

Yes, but we are learning even for our successes.

Answer 18

Correct.
