From an e-mail

Every once in a while, someone send's me an e-mail that I find touching.

Bobbie sent me one of those e-mails today and I felt the need to share with you.

Things we should believe
A Birth Certificate shows we were born
A Death Certificate shows we died
Pictures show we lived!

Have a seat...Relax.. ..And read this slowly.

I Believe...
Just because two people argue,
Doesn't mean they don't love each other.
And just because they don't argue,
Doesn't mean they do love each other.

I Believe...
We don't have to change friends if
We understand friends change..

I Believe.....
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....
True friendship continues to grow, even over
The longest distance..
Same goes for true love.

I Believe...
You can do something in an instant
That will give you heartache for life.

I Believe...
it's taking me a long time
To become the person I want to be.

I Believe....
You should always leave loved ones with
Loving words. It may be the last time you see them.

I Believe.....
You can keep going long after you think you can't.

I Believe...
We are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

I Believe...
Either you control your attitude or it controls you..

I Believe...
Heroes are the people who do what has to be done
When it needs to be done, regardless of consequences.

I Believe...
Money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I Believe...
My best friend and I can do anything or nothing
And have the best time.

I Believe.....
Sometimes the people you expect to kick you
When you're down will be the ones to help you get back up.


I Believe...
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....
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...
It isn't always enough to be forgiven by others;
Sometimes, you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I Believe....
No matter how bad your heart is broken,
The world doesn't stop for your grief.

I Believe...
Our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are,
But we are responsible for whom we become.

I Believe...
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...
Your life can be changed in a matter of
Hours by people who don't even know you.

I Believe....
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...
Credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.

I Believe...
The people you care about most in life are taken from you too soon.
'The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the most of anything

I love this, Lisa. It's one to print and frame!

This is lovely and instructive Lisa. I particularly like the background and circumstances one and I'm still learning to forgive myself for being human and imperfect. I'm still learning to accept a compliment and believe I'm worthy of just about anything!
