I HAVE LEARNED....

I HAVE LEARNED.... The following quote contains "principles for Christian living" that are taken mostly from the 'wisdom' literature of the bible- Proverbs and Ecclesiastes. It is impossible for one to live right, or to have wholesome relationships, without following Scriptural principles. I'VE LEARNED that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is be someone who can be loved... The rest is up to them. I'VE LEARNED that no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back. 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. I'VE LEARNED that just because someone doesn't love you the way you want to, doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have. I'VE LEARNED that there are people who love you dearly, but just don't know how to show it. I'VE LEARNED that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. 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 no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.
