As I've Walked
Thru Life
I've learned-
that you can do something in an instant
that will give you heartache for life.
I've learned-
that you should always leave loved ones with loving words.
It may be the last time you see them.
I've learned-
that we are responsible for what we do,
no matter how we feel.
I've learned-
that either you control your
attitude or it controls you.
I've learned-
that heroes are the people who do what has to
be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.
I've learned-
that my best friend and I can do anything
or nothing and have the best time.
I've learned-
that sometimes the people you expect to kick you
when you're down will be the ones to help you get back up.
I've learned-
that true friendship continues to grow, even over
the longest distance.
I've learned-
that just because someone doesn't love you the
way you want them to doesn't mean they
don't love you with all they have.
I've learned-
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've learned-
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've learned-
that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others,
Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.
I've learned-
that our background and circumstances may have
influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we
become.
I've learned-
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.
I've learned-
that we don't have to change friends
if we understand that friends change.
I've learned-
that two people can look at the exact same thing
and see something totally different.
I've learned-
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've learned-
that credentials on the wall do not
make you a decent human being.
I've learned-
that the people you care about most
in life are taken from you too soon.
I've learned-
that family and friends are what make
us who we are today, and without them we
would never be complete.

So Glad I'm Walking Thru Life With You!
