The older I get, the more I realize... - Page 9

The older I get, the more I realize...

That I can't please every one all the time. It's time consuming & exhausting ~ and honestly not possible.

That I have to love myself more than anyone else.

That I can't always control what happens around me... but I can control how I react to it.

That sometimes people suck... and that's ok.

... things (such as body parts) hurt longer than they used to.

...that now is not the time to get cocky or careless. That I don't know everything. That there is no advantage to staying stuck in a rut. I realize I need to stay active and engaged, or the aging process will become a quick, downhill ride.

how i should have made personal friends with a banker, lawyer, doctor and mafia hit man. where's getting a favor when you need it?

The more I realize what Nannie was saying when she said, I don't know how I use to get everything done when I worked.

Sometimes a good smack is EXACTLY what some people needed when they were younger.

The older I get, the more I realize that it really does pay to choose one's friends wisely. Trustworthy friends are few and far between, and, those who are were not issued knives at birth.

The older I get, the more I realize that it served both my daughter and I well that we are not 'best friends', but have a very healthy Mother/Daughter relationship. We not only love each other, but like each other very much.

The older I get, the more I realize that alone time is healthy and feeds the calm and peaceful side of me.

bigbutchmistie · 03-12-2010, 10:04 PM

That when someone show's you their true color's believe them...

That everyone comes into your life for a purpose or a season... And its a blessing for either

That when someone tells you that they love you, listen to what they are saying but its better to watch what they do. For actions speak far louder than words.. That my adopted dad said growing up "believe half of what you hear and all that you see"

That if you sit back and listen and watch body language you can learn alot about someone

That if you cant respect yourself then others wont

Not to plan your life. Cause what God has planned will happen anyway...

That when you truly love someone you truly want their happiness even if that road leads to someone else

That if you cant trust someone with basic human value's chances are you wont be able to trust them at all......

The older I get the more I realize how precious each moment is and how important it is to stay in those moments...

bigbutchmistie · 03-13-2010, 12:06 AM

To let things go...

To choose my battles carefully...

That significant others come and go but true friends are always there

That your true friends will always be there for you... And will tell you the real truth. Even when you dont wanna hear it

To forgive those that have wronged me in the past. Not for them but for my well being.

To love deeper and harder when I love. To love someone as I do myself
