Things to live by

Somthing I found and just had to share. With all this anamocity that I am reading being fairly new and not quite understanding but here it goes... I've learned- That you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to Them. I've learned- That no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back. I've learned- That it takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it. I've learned- that it's not hwnat you have in your life but who you have in your life that counts. I've learned- that you can get by on charm for about 15 min. After that, you'd better know something. I've learned- that you shouldn't compare yourself to the best others can do. I've learned- that you can do something in a instant that will give you hearache for life. I've learned- that it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be. 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 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 fades and there had better be something else to take its place. 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 are 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 you should never tell a child their dreams are unlikely or outlandish. Few things are more humiliating, and what a tragedy it would be if they believed it. There is more but I think I have written enought for us to all think on. PF wishes

Really nice, Kim. My favorites: 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 either you control your attitude or it controls you ...thinking happy thoughts...
