I Believe
I Believe
(Written Version)
I believe-
that we don’t have to change friends
if we understand that friends change.
I believe-
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 believe-
that true friendship continues to grow,
even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.
I believe-
that you can do something in an instant
that will give you heartache for life.
I believe-
that it’s taking me a long time
to become the person I want to be.
I believe-
that you should always leave loved ones
with loving words. It may be the last
time you see them.
I believe-
that you can keep going
long after you can’t.
I believe-
that we are responsible for what we do,
no matter how we feel.
I believe-
that either you control your attitude
or it controls you.
I believe-
that 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.
I believe-
that heroes are the people
who do what has to be done
when it needs to be done,
regardless of the consequences.
I believe-
that money is a lousy way of keeping score.
I believe-
that my best friend and I can do anything
or nothing and have the best time.
I believe-
that sometimes the people you expect
to kick you when you’re down,
will be the ones to help you get back up.
I believe-
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 believe-
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 believe-
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 believe-
that it isn’t always enough to be
forgiven by others. Sometimes you
have to learn to forgive yourself.
I believe-
that no matter how bad your heart is broken
the world doesn’t stop for your grief.
I believe-
that our background and circumstances
may have influenced who we are,
but we are responsible for who we become.
I believe-
that 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.
I believe-
that you shouldn’t be so eager to find out a
secret. It could change your life forever.
I believe-
that two people can look at the exact same
thing and see something totally different.
I believe-
that your life can be changed in a matter of
hours by people who don’t even know you.
I believe-
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 believe-
that credentials on the wall do not make
you a decent human being.
I believe-
that the people you care about most in life
are taken from you too soon.

This really inspired me and should cause each one reading it to evaluate their life again. Thinking of my past more and will influence my future. Never leave a loved one without telling them how much you love them. I took mine`s last day telling her over and over how much I cared for her and loved her.
Ms. Sheilla Rose

I BELIEVE – “THAT TRUE FRIENDSHIP CONTINUES TO GROW, EVEN OVER THE LONGEST DISTANCE. SAME GOES FOR TRUE LOVE.”
I BELIEVE – “THAT YOU SHOULD ALWAYS LEAVE LOVE ONES WITH LOVING WORDS. IT MAY BE THE LAST TIME YOU SEE THEM.”
I’M THANKFUL THAT I HAVE A FRIENDSHIP THAT HAS CONTINUED TO GROW. I ALWAYS LEAVE MY WONDERFUL FRIEND WITH LOVING WORDS. AS WE ARE NEARING THE END OF YOUR LIVES, I WANT TO BE SURE THAT THE LAST THING MY FRIEND REMEMBERS ABOUT ME ARE THE KIND AND LOVING WORDS.

Hello Joe Barletti, hang in there…you are not alone. we all have problems, and I agree with Elizabeth…let’s live life one day at a time and savor the simple things in life. I don’t have a car but my joy is meeting people on my way to work and we share encouraging stories even if we stand in the cold waiting for our bus. I have my two boys who make sure I HAVE HOT COFFEE WHEN I LEAVE AND HOT SOUP WHEN I GET HOME.
And reading inspirational lines like this keep me going…keep me strong.
May the Lord bless us all in this most difficult times…and we will survive because we put all our trust in HIM. Myla R

Joe Barlette: I will pray for you and your wife tonight. May you both be blessed
with peace and comfort.
It does seem overwhelming sometimes, but have
faith in GOD and talk to Him… He is always there for you.
Vacations? What is that ? My husband and I take a vacation one day
at a time… Sometimes we just go to a Mall, or take a walk on the
green or sit on our deck with a cookie and lemonade and watch the
silly birds and squirrels. Try to think of the good things… you still
have each other… Know that you have friends that are praying for
you both, though you may not know it… Bless you both…

I believe que cuando caminemos por la vida nos damos cuenta que si nunca lloramos ,no sabemos lo que es la tristeza, si nunca caemos jamas aprenderemos a levantarnos, y si no nos lastiman ignorariamos lo que es el dolor por eso en la vida aunque llores, caigas, te lastimen, levantate y permite a ti mismo sanar tus heridas!! le deseo a todos un lindo y Maravilloso Dia Recuerda Siempre Mientras haya vida Hay Esperanzas Gracias A todos por exitir!!
QUE DIOS LOS BENDIGA A TODOS LOS QUE LEYERON ESTO…

O.K., o.k. when you are young and married, of course your love is HOT and PASSIONATE…(You of course have all that energy, etc.) BUT, when you have all the responsibilities of caring for children, husband, working outside the home, housework, canning vegetables from the garden, entertaining, animals, teaching Sunday school, PTA meetings, etc…WHEW !!! It gets to a point that even though you are still in love with your husband, the hot and passionate gets really draining.
(And enough kids to raise, man.) The LOVE is still there, enduring for 60 years and counting… I AM TIRED zzzzzzzzz (but still in LOVE.)
Blessings Elizabeth zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Noman, I on some card told you something about life.Don’t be hard on life,true love and true friendships are two different things.Why, How, why there are kind of friendships.These days boys and girls both are friends,but where we came from it was not common girls and boys be friends and if they were friends it was not friendship it was love.So this mixup of love and friendship is getting complicated.I think it was better this way.So you are saying you don’t belive on above anything.If you are heart broken with any girl you are truning from friendships.Your best buddy’s don’t you have anyone,you tell you, you are important to them,they are there for you.They cheer you up,help you to bring out from the blue.Might be its you how is pusing away the friendships not them.

this is an inspiration of writing, I love this writing, it expressed how I feel and it is the truth of life we are on this world. and of course we are not able to continue our life if God is not with us.
life is not easy in this world but it is beautiful when we have God to be in our life because He is the great Happiness and fulfil our empty heart.
How lovely YOU are My Jesus Chirst – My Dearest God.

No matter how hot the passion is at first it will not be HOT!!!! all of the time, yes this is true!
The love grows deeper and more intense as you come together as one with Gods Blessings!!!
No lust of hot passion will ever last without God being the first love, and doing His will and then Yes!!!! Surprises all of the time as you began to grow into one beautiful flower together, with lots of showers of hugs, kisses, respect, honor, truth and compassion that does last for eternity!
A Rose garden is so beautiful when taken care of and so is love and it has to be pampered everyday to stay healthy and alive.
Always remember your wife or hubby is your last date for life and never ever take them for granted or let them get dusty, and all rusty or wilted for then Love dies and can not survive this kind of abandonment for we are of love and have to have love to survive!
God will Bless all of us who love with passion when we are obeying Him and Our Love will grow in ways, other then just hot, but with respect and honor for one another and gentle soft thoughts, prayers of and for each other as we go through our day, and we come back together as one and have the best of times appreciating each other for the beauty and love we share as one and with God guiding us and our love.
Love is of God and no love can survive without God!

It is words of much wisdom, and wisdom learned in life as you age and come closer to knowing who Jesus Christ, Our Heavenly Father is and His words of truth to live by each day.
Birthdays do not make you wise only God can do that!
