that will give you heartache for life.

to become the person I want to be.

with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.
I've learned that you can keep going long after you can't.
I've learned that we are responsible for what we do,
no matter how we feel.
I've learned that either you control your attitude
or it controls you.
I've learned that regardless of how hot and
steamy a relationship is at first, the passion

who do what has to be done,

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.

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.

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.

forgiven by others. Sometimes you
have to learn to forgive yourself.

the world doesn't stop for your grief.
I've learned that our background and circumstances
may have influenced who we are,

it doesn't mean they don't love each other.
And just because they don't argue,
it doesn't mean they do.

same thing and see something totally different.

of hours by people who don't even know you.

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.
life is wonderful when we learn
blessed be. Bella
