The Things I Believe...

The Things I Believe...

We all have things we believe in, and not just in a religious or spiritual way, but also, when it comes to life lessons we've learned along our decades of life. The things we want our children and grandchildren to believe in as well, because these are the beliefs that may make this world a better place for them to live in, and if we can impart just a bit of what we've learned, the better the chances of them living up to it.  So take a seat, relax, and read this slowly...

	I Believe...  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 love each other.
	I Believe... That we don't have to change friends if  We understand that friends change.
	I Believe... 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 Believe... That true friendship continues to grow,  even over the longest distance.  Same goes for true love.
	I Believe...  That you can do something in an instant  That will give you heartache for life.
	I Believe... That it's taking me a long time  To become the person I want to be.
	I Believe... That you should always leave loved ones with Loving words. It may be the last time you see them.
	I Believe...  That you can keep going long after you think you can't.
	I Believe... That we are responsible for what  We do, no matter how we feel.
	I Believe... That either you control your attitude or it controls you.
	I Believe... That heroes are the people who do what has to be done, when it needs to be done,  regardless of the consequences.
	I Believe... That my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.
	I Believe... That sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down will be the ones to help you get back up.
	I Believe... 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 Believe... 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 Believe... That it isn't always enough  to be forgiven by others.  Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.
	I Believe... That no matter how bad  your heart is broken,  the world doesn't stop for your grief.
	I Believe... That our background and circumstances  may have influenced who we are, but,  we are responsible for who we become.
	I Believe... That you shouldn't be  so eager to find out a secret.  It could change your life forever.
	I Believe... Two people can look at the exact same thing And see something totally different.
	I Believe... That your life can be changed  in a matter of hours  by people who don't even know you.
	I Believe... 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 Believe... That credentials on the wall  do not make you a decent human being.
	I Believe... That the people you care about  most in life  are taken from you too soon.
