I received this email out of the blue on a Saturday afternoon. It was sent to me by one of my very good friend’s mothers, both of whom I absolutely adore endlessly, and I couldn’t help but share it with all of you. I found the pictures to be beautiful and the messages to be undeniably on point.

A Birth Certificate shows that we were born
A Death Certificate shows that we died
Pictures show that we lived!
Have a seat . Relax . . .
And read this slowly.
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 love each other.
We understand that friends change.
That it’s taking me a long time
To become the person I want to be.
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.
That true friendship continues to grow,
even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.
That my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.
I Believe…
That you should always leave loved ones with Loving words.
That heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs
to be done, regardless of the consequences.
That you shouldn’t be so eager to find
Out a secret. It could change your life Forever.
I Believe….
That you can keep going long after you think you can’t.
That we are responsible for what
We do, no matter how we feel.
That either you control your attitude or it controls you.
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.
That sometimes when I’m angry
I have the right to be angry,
But that doesn’t give me the right to be cruel.
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.
That no matter how bad your heart is broken
the world doesn’t stop for your grief.
That our background and circumstances
may have influenced who we are,
But, we are responsible for who we become.
I Believe….
Two people can look at the exact same
Thing and see something totally different.
That your life can be changed in a matter of
Hours by people who don’t even know you.
That credentials on the wall
do not make you a decent human being.
That the people you care about most in life
are taken from you too soon.
When a friend cries out to you –
you will find the strength to help.
-
have the best of everything;
They just make the most of everything they have.
