I think the learning has to do with the balancing process; perhaps you are too proud and need to learn humility or vice versa. When you gain the qualities you need to develop, they are there inside you and you go on to another lesson. Think of yourself as a teenager and then think of yourself now. How has your perspective broadened? This shows the lessons you have incorporated into your being. Often the same things occur over and over (such as creepy boy/girl friends, cruel authority figures, ungrateful friends); it is hard to know how to grow out of these and takes a lot of thought and inner exploration.
