- No matter which path you choose to take in life,

even if it is the wrong one,

you will always end up right where you're supposed to be.

- If someone doesn't change the first time they say they're going to,

chances are they aren't planning to at all.

- You can only get by on charm for so long.

After a while, you better know something.

- Don't waste your time with fake friends.

After a while, you will realize who the fake ones are.

Once you do, move on.

- Never expect anything out of anyone.

If you do, you will be let down the majority of the time.

It's better to be pleasantly surprised.

- No matter how thin you slice it, there are always two sides.

- It's much easier to react than it is to think.

- Always leave loved ones with loving words,

even when you're angry with them.

It may be the last time you see them.

- You can always keep going long after you think you can't.

- Either you control your attitude or it controls you.

- Sometimes a good cry is all you need.

- Learning to forgive takes practice.

- There are people who love you dearly

but just don't know how to show it.

- Sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down

will be the ones to help you get back up.

- Sometimes when you're angry you have the right to be

but that doesn't give you the right to be cruel.

- No matter how much you care,

some people just don't care back.

- 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 had.

- 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.

- It isn't always enough to be forgiven by others.

Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

- No matter how bad your heart is broken,

the world doesn't stop for your grief.

- Our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are

but we are responsible for who we become.

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

- It's not WHAT you have in your life but

WHO you have in your life that counts.

- Two people can look at the exact same thing
and see something totally different.

- No matter how many friends you have,

if you are their pillar you will feel lonely and lost

at the times you need them the most.
