I believe

I believe that...

• a birth certificate shows that we were born, a death certificate shows that we died, but pictures show that we lived!
• 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.
• we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.
• 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.
• true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.
• you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for a lifetime.
• it can take a long time to become the person we want to be.
• you should always leave loved ones with loving words. You never know when it may be the last time you see them.
• you can keep going long after you think you can't.
• we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.
• either you control your attitude, or it controls you.
• heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
• money is a lousy way of keeping score.
• sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down will be the ones to help you get back up.
• when I'm angry I sometimes have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.
• 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.
• it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.
• no matter how bad your heart is broken, the world doesn't stop for your grief.
• our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.
• two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.
• your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don't even know you.
• even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to help.
• credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.
• the happiest people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best of everything they have.
• 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you'
