JUST ALONG FOR THE RIDE

About Me

I like to be bored.....I try to find humor in almost every situation.....always looking for the good reason that something bad has happened....just want everyone around me to be happy...so I could relax....want to write a book....but don't know enough descriptive words to really get it going....want to paint pictures..but paint gets all over everything becasue I am a sloppy painter,,,,want to live on the beach,,,but I really don't like sand all that much...want to travel but hate packing and figuring out what clothes to bring...I would love to be a singer but I am tone deaf....I wish I could grant wishes. ..I've learned that two people can look at the exact same thing And see something totally different.I've learned that there are people who love you dearly, But just don't know how to show it.I've learned that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing And still have the best time.I've learned that true friendship continues to grow, Even over the longest distance.I've learned 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've learned that no matter how much I care, Some people just don't care back.I've learned that you should never tell a child His dreams are unlikely or outlandish. Few things are more humiliating, And what a tragedy it would be if he believed it.I've learned that your family won't always be there for you. It may seem funny, but people you aren't related to Can take care of you and love you and teach you to trust people again. Families aren't necessarily biological.I've learned that our background and circumstances May have influenced who we are, But we are responsible for who we become..
