Like vanblah, all of the lessons I've learned the hard way (and though I am only 26, there have been a number of them so far) have made me a stronger person. They have been lessons worth learning.
The big thing I've learned is that it's better to have your own safety net, versus having to rely on others to save you. They may not always be able to do so. You need to be able to stand on your own two feet. On the same note, you also must be willing to accept help when you truly need help.
