-:

Things you'll never hear me say part 7. I've heard it all before.

-:

It goes in the same things you'll never hear me say bag as if I can do it, anyone can, you've got this, there's no need to cry, why would you do that? And you can't shock me. Things I'll never say.

-:

Settle in and let me tell you why you won't catch me saying I've heard it all before anytime soon. People are endlessly fascinating.

-:

You might think you've heard every story under the sun, but then someone decides to spill the beans about their secret life

-:

working in security in Central London during the early 2000.

-:

They tell you celebrity tales that would make your ears bleed.

-:

I mean, whoever would have seen that coming? Not me.

-:

Just when you think you've got the script of life worked out, someone or something flips you to a completely new chapter and

-:

you're left there with your jaw on the floor.

-:

It turns out that even if you say I've heard it all before, you almost certainly haven't.

-:

Maybe it's choosing to stop drinking, a career change, a new relationship or discovering a hidden talent for interpretive dance.

-:

I get it, We all have our moments of thinking.

-:

We know it all, but here's the thing.

-:

Life has a sneaky way of throwing curveballs at us when we least expect it.

-:

Someone comes along with a story or piece of wisdom that rocks your world, so why shut the door on the possibility of being surprised, enlightened or downright amazed?

-:

Now I'm not saying every tale or idea comes my way is a game changer.

-:

Some stories might be as old as the hills or as predictable as Monday morning traffic, but there's often a twist, a unique

-:

perspective, or a personal touch that makes even the seemingly mundane worth hearing. And guess what? That's what makes my life interesting. Think about it this way.

-:

If you've genuinely heard it all before, you're probably living in some alternate reality where time stands still and reruns are the main attraction.

-:

In the real world, where change is the only constant, there's always something new to learn, discover, or ponder over.

-:

So why not embrace the uncertainty and un enjoy the delightful surprise that comes with not knowing at all.

-:

Besides, being open to new tales and perspectives is a fantastic way to connect with people.

-:

You never know when that quirky anecdote or bizarre fact might be the catalyst for a new friendship or hilarious shared joke with someone.

-:

By staying receptive, you're not just opening your mind, you're opening doors to unexpected connection and shared laughter.

-:

And let's talk about personal growth for a second.

-:

If you're stuck in the I've heard it all before mindset, you're essentially slamming the door on opportunities for self improvement.

-:

Growth happens when we stretch our comfort zones, challenge our assumptions, and expose ourselves to fresh ideas.

-:

Saying goodbye to that overused phrase is like giving yourself permission to evolve and become the next best version of you.

-:

So much of life's richness comes from its unpredictability.

-:

I've heard it all before implies a certain level of arrogance.

-:

It's like acting as if you're some all knowing sage who's seen and heard everything the universe has to offer.

-:

Well, newsflash, none of us is that person.

-:

We're all just moving through this life together, and the best part is that nobody has all the answers.

-:

There will always be another story waiting around the corner, a tale of triumph, heartbreak, or a hilarious mishap.

-:

I'm here for all the stories, listening every single time as if it's new and interesting.

-:

Who would want to be able to claim I've heard it all before? Life is too short.

-:

I want to be that person with wide open eyes and a wide open heart.

-:

So here's to never saying I've heard it all before, may our stories always be fresh, our adventures joyful and our mornings clear headed and hangover free. I say, tell me more. I'm all ears. Thank you for listening in today. Come back again next week.

-:

-:
