Here are some great thoughts from a friend.

Things I Have Learned
by H. L. Gradowith

I have learned that Jesus loves me.

I have learned that some people in this world do not love Jesus.

I have learned that some people in this world do not love me.

I have learned that not everything that glitters is gold.

I have learned that gold is, largely, too expensive for me.

I have learned that difficult things are usually better in the end than easy things.

I have learned that good intentions, by themselves, are not so good.

I have learned that some people are just plain mean.

I have learned that some people are just ignorant.

I have learned that some people are just confused -– give them time.

I have learned that “somebody” is usually me.

I have learned that nothing in this world lasts forever.

I have learned that there is just no pleasing some people.

I have learned that I do not care whether I please some people or not.

I have learned that the truly important things pertain to the next life.

I have learned that there is no shortage of good ideas.

I have learned that there is a great shortage of folks to put good ideas to work.

I have learned that life is short and hard.

I have learned that life is long and hard.

I have learned that you only get one chance in this life.

I have learned that one chance is probably about all we can stand.

I have learned that Jesus loves me.
