We all have things we believe in, and not just in a religious or spiritual way, but also life lessons we've learned along the way. They are things we want our children and grandchildren to believe in as well, because these beliefs make this world a better place for them to live in, and if we can impart just a bit of what we've learned, our children will have a better chance to live up to their beliefs.
So take a seat, relax, and read through this slowly...
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 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 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 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.
