mlg Posted January 28, 2010 Report Posted January 28, 2010 I read this today and was particularly intrigued by the comment: No matter how bad your heart is broken, the world doesn't stop for your grief. Boy, I think we all know how true that is. I included the entire "poem" because it was pretty good. A Birth Certificate shows that we were born A Death Certificate shows that we died Pictures show that we lived! Have a seat . .. . Relax . . . And read 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 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 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 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.... That you should send this to all of the people that you believe in, I just did.. 'The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; They just make the most of everything. Thank you God for all the wonderful people who help us throughout the journey of life... May Angels guard you and guide you.
