It may be the last time you see them.

that you can keep going
long after you thought you couldn't.

I've learned-
that we are responsible for what we do,
no matter how we feel.

that either you control your attitude
or it controls you.

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 sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry,
but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

I've learned-
that true friendship continues to grow,even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.

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 your family won't always be there for you.
It may seem funny, but people you aren't related to can take care of you and love you and teach you to trust people again.
Families aren't biological.

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.

the world doesn't stop for your grief.

that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are,
but we are responsible for who we become.

that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other
And just because they don't argue, doesn't mean they do.

that we don't have to change friends
if we understand that friends change.

doesn't mean you must become friends with them.

that you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret.
It could change your life forever.

I've learned-
that two people can look at the exact same thing
and see something totally different.

I've learned-
that your life can be changed in a matter of
hours by people who don't even know you.

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-
The difficulties of life can make us bitter or better.
