I
Have Learned
.....
I've
learned - that
you cannot make someone love you.
that
no matter how much I care,
that
it takes years to build up trust,
that
it's not what you have in your life
that
you can get by on charm
that
you shouldn't compare
that
it's not what happens to people
that
you can do something in an instant
that
no matter how thin you slice it,
that
it's taking me a long time
that
it's a lot easier
that
you should always leave
that
you can keep going
that
we are responsible for what we do,
that
either you control your attitude
that
regardless of how hot and steamy
that
heroes are the people
that
learning to forgive takes practice.
that
there are people who love you dearly,
that
money is a lousy way of keeping score.
that
my best friend and I can do anything
that
sometimes the people you expect
that
sometimes when I'm angry
that
true friendship continues to grow,
that
just because someone
that
maturity has more to do with
that
you should never tell a child
that
your family won't always
that
no matter how good a friend is,
that
it isn't always enough
that
no matter how bad
that
our background and circumstances
that
sometimes when my friends fight,
that
just because two people argue,
that
sometimes you have to put
that
we don't have to change friends
that
you shouldn't be so
that
two people can look
that
no matter how you try to protect
that
there are many ways of falling
that
no matter the consequences,
that
no matter how many friends
that
your life can be changed
that
even when you think
that
writing, as well as talking,
that
the paradigm we live in
that
credentials on the wall
that
the people you care most about in life
that
although the word "love"
that
it's hard to determine Author: Ayman Elmistikawy |
It's
my hope
by sharing
"I've Learned"
that I've helped bring
a ray of enlightenment to
& add a touch of clarity to living.
On a dreary & gloomy day we sometimes
lose sight of some of life's important things.
There is something that I'd want to include here.
I have learned it can be all too easy to see
the negative traits in others & say,
"Hey, look here.." in hopes they
will "See." I've learned that
I should look at the three
other fingers pointing
back at me before
being so hasty
to point one
finger at
another.
