Things I've Learned .::My 25 @ 25::.

1. The laundry can wait.
2. Laugh at yourself!
3. Always choose to believe something good will happen!
4. When you are angry at someone, think about all the things you love about them before you speak.
5. Relax. This is only your current situation. It will change.
6. The past is the past—leave it there.
7. Do not have fear — being afraid only attracts it to you that much faster.
8. If you don’t wear it, use it, drive it, or read it for more than a year—get rid of it.
9. Make every day a special occasion, and make special occasions nothing short of spectacular!
10. Trust, but verify
11. If you don’t have anything nice to say—SHUT UP!
12. That no matter how much I care, some people just don't care back
13. That the whole "Independent Woman" thing (as most of us know it) is overrated. Listen to "Weary" by Amel Larrieux and tell me I'm not talkin' the truth. They all need hugs!
14. You shouldn't compare yourself to the best others can do but to the best you can do.
15. It's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.
16. It's a lot easier to react than it is to think
17. You can keep going long after you think you can.
18. We are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.
19. There are people who love you dearly, but just don't know how to show it.
20. 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
21. Maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated
22. No matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that
23. Our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become
24. No matter the consequences, those who are honest with themselves get further in life.
25. No matter how many friends you have, if you are their pillar you will feel lonely and lost at the times you need them most.
