"I have learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I have learned that you can tell a lot about a person by the way he/she handles these three things: a rainy day, lost luggage, and tangled Christmas tree lights. I have learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you will miss them when they are gone from your life. I have learned that making a "living" is not the same thing as making a "life. " I have learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I have learned that you should not go through life with a catcher's mitt on both hands; you need to be able to throw something back. I have learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I have learned that even when I have pains, I do not have to be one. I have learned that every day you should reach out and touch someone. People love a warm hug, or just a friendly pat on the back. I have earned that I still have a lot to learn. I have learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel."
