i've learned..

that all you can do is be someone who can be loved-the rest is up to them. that no matter how much i care, some people just dont care back. that it's not what you have in your like, but who you have that really matters. that it takes years to build up trust and only seconds to destroy it. that you can get by on charm for about 15 minutes-but after that, you better know something. that we are responsible for what we do no matter how we feel. that money is a lousy way of keeping score. that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down will be the ones to help you get back up. that you dont need to change - you just need to be completed. that you can do something in an instant that can give you a heartache for life. that its taking me a long time to become the person i want to be. that sometimes when im angry, i have the right to be- but it doesnt give me the right to be cruel. that maturity has more to do with what types of experienced you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated. that when someone doesn't love you the way you want, it doesn't mean they dont love you with all they have. that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others, sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself. that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief. that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean that they dont love each other, and just because they dont argue it doesnt mean that they do. that two people could look at the same exact thing and see something completly different. that we dont have to change friends if we understand that friends change. that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. that you can keep going long after you can't. that wither you control your attitude or it controls you. that my friends and i can do anything or nothing and still have the best time. that true friendship continues to grow- even over the long distance- that goes for true love too. that wanting to know everything isn't always good for you- but in the end sometimes helps you realize the truth. that even when you think you have no more to give- when a friend cries, you find the strength to help. that maybe you need to let go of some onr, just to realize that you need them in your life and see if they need you back.
