LESSONS FOR A LIFETIME!!!



These "ideas" are very dear to my heart,
and are pretty much the basis of how I try to live everyday life.
I don't always succeed, but I try to strive for success!! *smile*
I know this is long but you won't regret having read it!!


You cannot make someone love you. All you can do is BE lovable.
The rest is up to them.

No matter how much you care, some people just don't care back.

It takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.

It's not what you have in your life but whom you have in your life
That matters.

You can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes.
After that, You’d better know something.

You shouldn't compare yourself to the best others can do but to
The best YOU can do.

It's not what happens to people that's important. It's what they
Do about it.

You can do something in an instant that will give you heartache
For the rest of your life.

No matter how thin you slice it, there are always two sides to
Everything.

It takes a long time to become the person YOU want to be.

It's a lot easier to react than it is to think.

You should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be
The last chance you get.

You can keep going long after you think you can't.

We are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

Either you control your attitude or it controls you.

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.

Heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to
Be done, regardless of the consequences to THEMSELVES.

Learning to forgive takes practice.

There are people who love you dearly, but just don't know how to
Show it.

Money is a lousy way of keeping score.

Best friends can do anything or nothing and have the best
Time.

Sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down will
Be the ones to help you get back up.

Sometimes when you’re angry you have the right to be angry, but that
Doesn’t give you the right to be cruel.

True friendship continues to grow, even over the longest
Distance. Same goes for true LOVE.

Just because someone doesn't love you the way YOU want him or her to
Doesn’t mean they don't love you with all they have.

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.

A child should never be told that their dreams are unlikely or
Outlandish. Few things are more humiliating, and what a tragedy it
Would be if they BELIEVED it.

Your family won't always be there for you. It may seem funny, but
People you aren't related to can take care of you, love you and
Teach you to trust people again. Families aren't just biological, they're
Of the SOUL.

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.

It isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you
Have to learn to forgive yourself.

No matter how bad your heart is broken the WORLD just doesn't stop for
Your grief.

Our background and circumstances may have influenced who we
Are, but we are responsible for who we become.

Just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love
Each other. And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they
DO.

Sometimes you have to put the individual ahead of their actions.

There is a thin line between being nice and not hurting people's feelings;
And standing up for what you believe in.

We don't have to change friends if we understand that friends
Change.

You shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could change
YOUR life forever.

Two people can look at the exact same thing and see something
Totally different.

No matter how you try to protect your children, they will
Eventually get hurt and you will hurt in the process.

No matter the consequences, those who are HONEST with themselves
Get farther in life.

No matter how many friends you have, if you are always THEIR pillar
You may feel lonely and lost at the times you need them most.

Life can be changed in a matter of seconds by people who you don't
Even know.

Even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries
Out to you, you will find the strength to help.

Writing, as well as talking, can ease emotional pains.

The paradigm we live in is not all that is offered to us.

Credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.

The people you care most about in life are often taken from you
Too Soon.

Although the word "love" can have many different meanings; it
Loses value when over used.

There are many ways of falling and staying in love.
It's worth finding them.
