Things I have learned

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.

I've learned-
that money is a lousy way of keeping score.

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.

I've learned-
that true friendship continues to grow,
even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.

I've learned-
that just because someone doesn't love
you the way you want them to doesn't
mean they don't love you with all they have.

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 some members of your family
may not 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.
Families aren't biological.

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 are 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.

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 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.

I've learned-
that we don't have to change friends
if we understand that friends change.

I've learned-
that you shouldn't be so eager to find out a
secret. It could change your life forever.

I've learned-
that two people can look at the exact same
thing
and see something totally different.

I've learned-
that no matter how you try to protect your
children, they will eventually get hurt and
you will hurt in the process.

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

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.

We all face many lessons in life.
These, will either make
us better or bitter.
Hopefully, we choose to meet
these life lessons with a positive
approach. Wherever we are in our life
experience, there is always good waiting to
be expressed. Instinctively we know
this and we search for ways to better
ourselves. So, we grow and change and learn.
It is a great blessing to relax in God, to gratefully
dwell in His wisdom and grace.
Sincerely, Linda
