I have learned...

I HAVE LEARNED:

that "turning the other cheek" is often much more powerful than seeking revenge
that friends will come and go out of your life, but family will always be there
that worrying, doesn't get you anywhere. praying does.
that no life, no matter how small or insignificant, should be taken for granted. and there is no such thing as a "small" or "insignificant" person.
faith is more genuine when you close your eyes
nothing of this world is worth sacrificing your soul over
people are harsh, but Jesus' opinion is the only one that should matter to you
listening to what God tells you can result in disappointment from those around you, even your family (they'll come around)
The Father doesn't always answer with a "yes" or "no". Sometimes it's a "not right now" or "maybe"
Money will only make you happy temporarily.
Giving is way more fun than receiving.
a quote to live by "those who mind don't matter, and those who matter don't mind."-Audrey Hepburn
it doesn't matter how successful, funny, or good-looking you are. If you are an unkind, mean, apathetic person, all of your good qualities diminish.
there is no place like home.
no matter what you believe, how hard you pray, or how much you try...God's will, will always be done. and it's always perfect, whether you realize it now or in the next life.
being genuine, and being able to be taken for your word is extremely valuable
people are more GOOD, than bad. there is good in everyone.
