I have learned......

You cannot make someone love you. All you can
do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is
up to them.

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

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

It's not what you have in your life but who you have
in your life that counts.

You can get by with charm in 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 life.

No matter how thin you slice something, there are
always two sides.

It's taking me a long time to become the person I want
to be.

It is a lot easier to act than to think.

You should always leave loved ones with loving words,
it may be the last time you see them.

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

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

It's 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,
regardless of its consequences.

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

Money is a lousy way of keeping score.

My best friends and I 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 I'm angry, I have the right to be angry
but that doesn't give me 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 them to
doesn't mean that 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 candles are on the cake.

You should never tell a child that their dreams are unlikely
or outlandish. Few things are more humiliating and what a
tragedy if they believed it.

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

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
and love you and teach you to trust people again.

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 because that's one way of how you can grow
as friends.

No matter how bad your heart is broken, the world
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 2 people argue, it doesn't mean that
they don't love each other, and just because they
don't argue, it doesn't mean that they do.

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

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

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

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

There are many ways of falling and staying in love.

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
their pillar you will feel lone.

Your life can be changed in a matter of hours
by people you don't even know.

Writing as well as talking can ease emotional pain.

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

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

Although the word "love" van have many different
meaning, it loses its value when overly used.

It's hard to draw the line between being nice and
not hurting people's feelings and standing up for
what you believe in.




..... wow that's long! Well this sums up the things that I and some other people learned about life up to now, it might seem a lot but believe when I say that its not even a percent of the lessons that life has to in store for us to learn. We should always treat life as a school, we have to learn everything that we can from it so that we can pass those lessons to our succeeding generations. Life has a more lessons that we would need to not only learn but live.
