We
have to learn ...
We
have to learn-
that either we control our attitude
or it controls us.
We
have to learn-
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.
We
have to learn-
that heroes are the people who do what has to be done
when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
We
have to learn-
that money is a lousy way of keeping score.
We
have to learn-
that our best friend and us can do anything
or nothing and have the best time.
We
have to learn-
that sometimes the people we expect
to kick us when we are down
will be the ones to help us get back up.
We
have to learn-
that sometimes when we're angry
We have the right to be angry,
but that doesn't give us
the right to be cruel.
We
will learn-
that true friendship continues to grow,
even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.
We
have to learn-
that just because someone doesn't love
us the way we want them to doesn't
mean they don't love us with all they have.
We
will learn-
that maturity has more to do with
what types of experiences we've had
and what we've learned from them
and less to do with how many
birthdays we've celebrated.
We
have to learn-
that some members of our family
may not always be there for us.
It may seem funny, but people we aren't
related to can take care of us and love us
and teach us to trust people again. Families
aren't biological.
We
have to learn-
that no matter how good a friend is,
they're going to hurt us every once in a while
and we must forgive them for that.
We
have to learn-
that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by
others. Sometimes we are to learn to forgive
ourselves.
We
have to learn-
that no matter how bad our heart is broken
the world doesn't stop for our grief.
We
have to learn-
that our background and circumstances
may have influenced who we are,
but we are responsible for who we become.
We
have to learn-
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.
We
have to learn-
that we don't have to change friends
if we understand that friends change.
We
have to learn-
that we shouldn't be so eager to find out a
secret. It could change our life forever.
We
have to learn-
that two people can look at the exact same thing
and see something totally different.
We
have to learn-
that no matter how we try to protect our
children, they will eventually get hurt and
we will get hurt in the process.
We
learned that-
that our life can be changed in a matter of
hours by people who don't even know us.
We
will learn-
that even when we think we have no more
to give, when a friend cries out to us,
we will find the strength to help.
We
will learn-
that credentials on the wall
do not make us a decent human being.
