WHAT I'VE LEARNED.....


I've learned -

that you shouldn't compare yourself to others,

but just be and do your best at all times.

I've learned -

that it's taking me a long time to

become the person I want to be,

and that I must have patience.

I've learned -

that you should always leave loved ones

with loving words.� It may be the

last time you see them.

I've learned -

that you can keep going long after

you think you can't.

I've learned -

that we are responsible for what we do,

no matter how we feel.

I've learned -

that either you control your attitude

or it controls you.

I've learned -

that regardless of how hot and steamy a

relationship is at first, the passion fades

and there had better be something else to

take its place.

I've learned -

that heroes are the people who do what has to

be done when it needs to be done,

regardless of the consequences.

I've learned -

that money is not everything,

and that having it doesn't make you happy.

I've learned -

that my best friend and I can do anything

or nothing and have the best time.

I've learned -

that sometimes the people you expect to kick you

when you're down will be the ones to help

you get back up.

I've learned -

that sometimes when I'm angry I have the

right to be angry, but that doesn't give me

the right to be cruel person.

I've learned -

that true friendship continues to grow,

even over the longest distance.

And that the same applies in true love.

I've learned -

that there are many ways to show someone

you love them,

and abuse of any kind doesn't count.

I've learned -

that maturity has more to do with what types

of experiences you've had and what you've

learned from them and less to do with how many

birthdays you've celebrated.

I've learned -

that it doesn't matter what happens to

you in life,

but how you deal with what did happen.

I've learned -

that the word Family means the people you love,

trust and care for more than anything,

and that it's not just biology.

I've learned -

that no matter how good a friend is,

they're going to hurt you every once in a while

and you must forgive them for that.

I've learned -

that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by

others. Sometimes you have to learn to

forgive yourself.

I've learned -

that no matter how bad your heart is broken

that you have to let go of the past and

live your life.

I've learned -

that our background and circumstances may have

influenced who we are,

but we are responsible for who we become.

I've learned -

that it doesn't matter who likes you,

but that you like yourself.

Sometimes people don't realize how much

words hurt.

I've learned -

that we don't have to change friends if we

understand that friends change.

I've learned -

that time is the most important gift

you can give anyone.

I've learned -

that two people can look at the exact same thing

and see something totally different.

I've learned -

that your life can be changed in a matter of hours

by people who don't even know you.

I've learned -

that fear of something is nothing more

than the limitations you set for youself,

And that facing the fear, and doing what you

want makes you a happier person.

I've learned -

that credentials on the wall do not make you a

decent human being.

I've learned -

that the people you care about most in life are

taken from you too soon.


Sometimes life is hard to take,

but when you look back and think about it,

you'll discover your strengths and realize

what's really important and what's not.
