I received this e-mail in my hotmail from Joyce and it really related to me on so many levels that I just wanted to share this following e-mail with my blog readers. I hope it might touch some of you the way it did for me.

A birth certificate shows the day we are born...
A death certificate shows the day that we die...
But the pictures, shows that we lived.

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 love each other.

I believe that we DO NOT have to change friends,
If we understand that friends change.

I believe that no matter how good a friend is,
They are going to hurt you once in a while,
And as a good friend, you are going to forgive them for that.

I believe that true friendship continues to grow,
no matter how far away they are.
Same goes for true love.

I believe you can do something in an instant,
That will give you a heartache for life.

I believe that it's taking me a long time,
to become the person I want to be.
(But that's what makes life worth living)

I believe that you should always leave loved ones with loving words
Because it might be the last time you see them.

I believe that you can keep going,
long after you think 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 you let it control you. (Take control!)

I believe the REAL heroes are the people who do what has to be done,
regardless of the consequences.

I believe my best friends and I can do anything or nothing at all,
and still have the best of times.

I believe that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when your down,
will be the ones that 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 maturity has more to do with the types of experiences you've had,
And what you have learnt from them,
not 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 teared right here!)

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 cicrumstances may have influenced who we are,
But we are responsible for who we become.

I believe that you shouldn't be so eager to find out secrets,
because it could change your life forever.

I believe two people can look at the exact same things,
and see totally different perspective.

I believe that your life can be changed in a matter of hours,
by people who don't even know you.
(But might have touched you!)

I believe that even when you have no more to give,
when a friend cries out to you,
you will find the inner 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 the ones that are taken from you too soon.

"The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything,
They just make the most of everything they have"
