Lessons To Learn Today I will learn that true happiness is not always to achieve my goals, but to learn to appreciate what I have achieved. I should learn that I should control my attitude, and not let my attitude control me. I will learn that to be rich is not to have the most, but to need the least. I will learn that it is futile to compare myself to others, because there is always someone better or worse than I. I will learn that it takes years to build trust, and a few seconds to destroy it. I will learn that there are people who love me very much, but simply don't know how to show their feelings. I will learn to forgive by practising forgiveness. I will learn that I cannot make anyone love me, but learn to let myself be loved. I will learn that what is most valuable is not what I have in my life, but who I have in my life. I will learn that it only takes a few seconds to hurt people I love, and that it can take years to heal. I will learn that money can buy everything but happiness. I will learn that while at times I may be entitled to be upset, that does not give me the right to upset those around me. I will learn that true friends are scarce, and when I have found one, I have found a treasure. I will learn that it is not always important that I be forgiven by others, but that I forgive myself. I will learn that I am the master of what I keep to myself, and the slave of what I say. I will learn that happiness is a decision, and decide to be happy today with what I am and what I have, and not die from envy and jealousy of what I lack. I will learn that those who are honest with themselves without considering the consequences, succeed in life. I will learn that I will reap what I plant; if I plant gossip,I will harvest suspicion...if I plant love, I will harvest happiness. ~Author Unknown~             Contents & Graphics Copyright © Homespun Blessings/2001 and the graphic artist listed.
