    Experience can either be earned, gained, or thrust upon us. We're not always in control of choosing what experiences that we go through. More often than not, each experience that we go through is less of our own decision, but sometimes an effect of our choices that we've made. Some doors once opened cannot be closed. Thus is the gateway of time and its partner, experience.
