The things I've learned in life...
“Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time,
for that’s the stuff life is made of.”
~Benjamin Franklin~ Never defend yourself when you are attacked, unless you are willing to pay the consequences...
Never think for one moment because you would defend another until death do you part, that they would do the same for you...
Never love with all your heart, unless you are willing to take the risk it will be broken...
What I have learned:
Pay attention to the little things, because when you really miss someone you miss the little things the most, like just laughing together...
Life is like a mirror; we get the best results when we smile. So talk about your blessings more than you talk about your problems.
Be wise enough to walk away from the nonsense around you. Focus on the positives, and soon the negatives will be harder to see...
Happiness never comes to those who don’t appreciate what they already have...
You’re not the same person you were a year ago, a month ago, or a week ago. You’re always growing. Experiences don’t stop. That’s life...
It’s OK if you mess up; that’s how you get wiser. Give yourself a break. Don’t give up. Great things take time, and you’re getting there. Let your mistakes be your motivation, not your excuses. Decide right now that negative experiences from your past won’t predict your future...
Fear is a feeling, not a fact. The best way to gain strength and self-confidence is to do what you’re afraid to do. Dare to change and grow. In the end, there is only one thing that makes a dream completely impossible to achieve: Lack of action based on the fear of failure...
You can’t always wait for the perfect moment. Sometimes you must dare to do it because life is too short to wonder what could have been...
You don’t have to be defined by the things you once did or didn’t do. Don’t let yourself be controlled by regret. Maybe there’s something you could have done differently, or maybe not. Either way, it’s merely something that has already happened. Leave the unchangeable past behind you as you give yourself to the present moment...
Don’t cry over the past, it’s gone forever to never come back again. Don’t stress too much about the future, it hasn’t arrived. Do your best to live NOW and make this moment worth living...
