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 seconds by
people who don't even know you.
I Believe...
That even when you think that you have no more to give,
if 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.
Sand and Stone
A story tells that two friends were walking through the desert. During some point of the journey they had an argument, and one friend slapped the other one in the face. The one who got slapped was hurt, but without saying anything, wrote in the sand: "TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SLAPPED ME IN THE FACE."
They kept on walking until they found an oasis, where they decided to take a bath. The one, who had been slapped, got stuck in the mire and started drowning, but the friend saved him. After the friend recovered from the near drowning, he wrote on a stone: "TODAY MY BEST FRIEND SAVED MY LIFE."
The friend who had slapped and saved his best friend asked him, "After I hurt you, you wrote in the sand and now, you write on a stone, why?"
The other friend replied: "When someone hurts us, we should write it down in sand where winds of forgiveness can erase it away. But, when someone does something good for us, we must engrave it in stone where no wind can ever erase it."
LEARN TO WRITE YOUR HURTS IN THE SAND, AND TO CARVE YOUR BENEFITS IN STONE😛😛😛
