What I've Learned in Life!
**I've learned that no matter how much I care,
some people just don't care back.
**I've learned that no matter how good a person is,
they're going to hurt you every once in a while, and
you must forgive them for that.
**I've learned that money is a lousy way of keeping
score.
**I've learned that talking can ease emotional pains.
**I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and
only seconds to destroy it.
**I've learned that true friendship continues to grow,
even over the longest distance.
**I've learned that you can do something in an instant
that will give you a heartache for life.
**I've learned that it's not what you have in your life,
but who you have in your life.
**I've learned that good friends are family members
that we are allowed to choose.
**I've learned that we don't have to change friends if
we understand that friends change.
**I've learned that the people you care most about in
life are taken from you too soon.
**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 our background and circumstances
may have influenced who we are, but we are
responsible for ourselves.
**I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to the
best others can do, but to the best you can do.
**I've learned that it's not where I am that is important.
It's where I am going.
**I've learned that no matter how thin you slice it, there
are always two sides.
**I've learned that it takes a long time to become the
person I want to be.
**I've learned that it's a lot easier to react than it is
to
think.
**I've learned that you can keep going long after you
think you cannot.
**I've learned that either you control your attitude, or it
controls you.
**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.

dearly, but just don't know how to show it.

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 there is more of my parents in me
that I thought.
**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.
**I've learned that just because someone doesn't love
you the way you want him/her to doesn't mean s/he
doesn't love you with all s/he has.
**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 you should never tell a child his/her
dreams are unlikely or outlandish. Few things are
more humiliating, and what a tragedy it would be if
s/he believed it.
**I've learned that it isn't always enough to be forgiven
by someone else. Sometimes you have to learn to
forgive yourself.
**I've learned that no matter how bad your heart is
broken, the world doesn't stop for your grief!
