I Believe...

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 money is a lousy way of keeping score.


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.


I Believe...
In you =)

  1.     I can't think of one of your statements that I would or could disagree with. The one about controlling your attitude or it will control you touches home.
