I got this as an email and it was nearly perfect at representing many of my beliefs. I rewrote some of them and added a couple of originals. If anyone knows who the original author is, please let me know so I can give them credit.

I BELIEVE...

…That we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.

...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 you can do something in an instant that will make your heart ache your entire life.

...That I am always becoming the person I want to be.

...That you should always leave loved ones with loving words, in case it’s the last time you see them.

...That you can keep going long after 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.

...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.

...That heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

...That money is an incredibly lousy way of keeping score.

...That my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.

...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 a person who can’t stand to be alone is usually not ready for love.

...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.

...That it isn't enough to be forgiven by others. You have to learn to forgive yourself as well.

…That forgiving people isn’t about letting them get away with it. Forgiveness is about freeing yourself from your prison of anger, so you can really live....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 started out as, but we are responsible for who we become.

...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.

...That you shouldn't always be so eager to find out a secret. It could ruin your life.

...That 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 even when you think you have no more to give, you will find the strength to help when a friend cries out to you.

...That credentials on the wall do not guarantee competence.

...That the people you care about most in life are always taken from you too soon...
