What I have learnt…

That our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.
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.
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.
That true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.
That it’s taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.
That you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.
That you can keep going, long after you think you can’t.
That we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.
That either you control your attitude or it controls you.
That heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
That money is a lousy way of keeping score.
That my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.
That sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you’re down, will be the ones to help you get back up.
That sometimes when I’m angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn’t give me the right to be cruel.
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.
That it isn’t always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.
That no matter how bad your heart is broken, the world doesn’t stop for your grief.
That you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.
That two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.
That your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don’t even know you.
That credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.
That life is more precious than money will ever be able to be.
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.
That I thought I was here to change the world- I realize I am here to change myself.
That my body is my friend I need to care for.
That it takes a lot more energy to be angry than it does being happy.
That my mood directly affects my health.
That I can choose to be happy regardless of my circumstances.
That it’s not important WHAT I do but HOW I do it.
