Things to Think About......

(anonymous e-mail)

I've learned....that a kindness
done is never lost.
It may take a while, but like
a suitcase on a luggage
carousel, it will return again.

I've learned....that just one person
saying to me, "You've made my
day!" makes my day.

I've learned....that I feel better
about myself when I make others
feel better about themselves.

I've learned....that having a child fall
asleep in your arms is one of
the most peaceful feelings in the world.

I've learned... that what we have
done for ourselves
alone dies with us. What we have
done for others and the world
remains and is immortal.

I've learned....that one sincere
apology is worth more than all the
roses money can buy.

I've learned....that being kind is
more important than being right.

I've learned.... that I need to let my friends
comfort me and hold me up, to
let them know I need support, that I'm not
always as strong as I look or act.

I've learned....that when I'm waiting to see my
doctor, I always wish I had stuck to my diet.

I've learned....that the more
mistakes I make, the
smarter I get.

I've learned....
that no matter how serious your life
requires you to
be, everyone needs a friend to act goofy with.

I've learned....that life is like a
roll of toilet paper.
The closer it gets to the end,
the faster it goes.

I've learned....that once a relationship
is over, if you experienced
more smiles than tears, then it
wasn't a waste of time.

I've learned.... that the Lord didn't do it all
in one day. What makes me think I can?

I've learned.... that when you plan to
get even with someone, you are
only letting that person continue to hurt you.

I've learned...that the older I get,
the smarter my
parents become.

I've learned....that love, not time,
heals all wounds.

I've learned.... that the easiest
way for me to grow
as a person is to surround myself
with people smarter than I am.

their ages or how far away they may be, you never
stop wanting to keep a protective
arm around your children.

I've learned.... that everyone
you meet deserves to
be greeted with a smile.

I've learned.... that life is tough,
but I'm tougher.

I've learned.... that opportunities
are never lost;
someone will take the
ones you miss.

I've learned.... that when you harbor
bitterness, happiness will dock
elsewhere.

I've learned....that one should keep
his words both soft and tender,
because tomorrow he may
have to eat them.

I've learned.... that a smile is
an inexpensive way
to improve your looks.

I've learned....that I can't choose
how I feel, but I can choose what
I do about it.

I've learned.... that nobody
wants to know what
you're doing until you're doing
something that you don't want anyone to
know.

I've learned.... that it is best to
give advice in
only two circumstances; when
it is requested and when it is a
life-threatening situation.

I've learned....that a good friend
is the one who tells you how you
really look in your jeans.

I Have Learned...that the best
classroom in the world is at the feet of
Jesus Christ.
