Eight Things That I Have Learned

 

• I've learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in.
  
• I've learned that no matter how much I care, some people are just jerks.
  
• I've learned that it takes years to build up trust, and it only takes suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.
  
• I've learned that you shouldn't compare yourself to others – they are much more screwed up than you know.
  
• I've learned that we are responsible for what we do, unless we are politicians, members of the major media and celebrities.
  
• I've learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you are down will be the ones who do.
  
• I've learned that we don't have to ditch bad friends, because their dysfunction makes us feel better about ourselves.
  
• I've learned that sometimes the people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon and all the less important ones never seem to go away.
