I Believe

I Believe…
A Birth Certificate shows that we were born,
A Death Certificate shows that we died,
Pictures show that we lived!

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 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 seconds
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...
The happiest of people
don't necessarily have the best of everything;
they just make the most of everything.

I Believe...

That you should send this
to all of the people that you believe in,
I just did
