Learning through experience

Not all knowledge can be taught or got from book, at times in life we learn through experiences, at times experiences comes before knowledge I feel in these cases we learn all the more better and deeper.
When we make mistakes ourselves out of our weakness it's easy to forgive others. In relation to this I remember a episode of Mahabaratha where there is a brief conversation between Bishma and his mother Ganga. Bishma tells his mother that he sticks to justice and it was difficult for him to oversee the fault of others, for which his mother replies that it is because I have not inflicted any weakness in you.
Same way empathy develops when we experience sufferings. Kindness develops when someone helps us in critical situations then we learn to help a lending hand.
So mostly in life we give what we have or what we have experienced.
