Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same.

A Couple of Lessons Learned in Life..

Thoughts, feelings and emotions that hopefully provoke the purest of minds...Capturing thoughts through written words is like capturing pictures on film or digital camera.

In Life I have learned a couple of things that:

1. It's not what you have in your life but who you have in your life that counts.

2. You cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them.

3. Either you control your attitude or it controls you.

4. No matter how much I care, some people just don't care back.

5. It takes years to build up trust, and only seconds to destroy it.

6. You can get by on charm for about ten minutes. After that, what you know is important.

7. You should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last as you can see those that have gone through unexpected tragedy in our recent memories.

8. It's not what happens to people that's important. It's what they do about it.

9. You can try to do something quickly; but it will give you heartache for life.

10. Regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades and there had better be something else to take its place.

11. Learning to forgive takes a whole lot of practice.

12. Money can only buy happiness sometimes but not all the times.

13. Sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel to myself nor other people.

14. True friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

15. 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 years you've lived.

16. You should never tell a child their dreams are unlikely or outlandish. Few things are more humiliating, and what a tragedy it would be if they believed you.

17. No matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must be ready to forgive them for that.

18. It isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. And I have to learn to forgive myself as well.

19. No matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief. I must find ways to heal it.

20. Just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other and just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.

21. Sometimes you have to put the individual ahead of their actions.

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

23. There are many ways of falling and staying in love if you pay close attention to your feelings.

24. Your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don't even know you.

25. Even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to help.

26. Writing, as well as talking, can ease emotional pains.

27. Certificates on the wall do not make you a decent human being; you have to go and make it happened.

28. The people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon and sometimes so young.

29. Life is too short and I have to make every second counts.

30. I have to Live life like I have imagined it to be.
