*~*Shana's Words Of Wisdom*~* |
· Don't shut people out in fear that you will get hurt, because chances are you will be hurt without them in the long run. It is better to be hurt, and pick yourself back up. It makes you stronger, and a better person. But by all means.Don't be taken advantage of. Sometimes enough is just enough. · Realize that people make mistakes just as you do, and if you can truly tell that they are sorry, second chances are a must! · Don't get rid of older things/people just because newer things/people come into the picture. Old things/people are valuable and have a deep meaning inside your heart. · Your parents will always be your only true best friend. · She is your mother and she is not perfect, but she loves you more than anything in this world. It would not kill you to be nice to her and show her the love that she shows you. Being a teenager is no excuse. Someday you will look back and regret it. · If you want something or someone, don?t give up so easily. Stop at nothing. You deserve to be happy, right? · Have faith in yourself more than you do. Someone somewhere thinks you are wonderful. Maybe you could accomplish more of you tried a little harder. · Don't let people get you down as much as they do. You are a nice person and if people can?t love you for who you are, then you do not need them bringing you down. You have qualities unlike anyone else and are very special. · Go with your heart. It feels the way that it does for a reason. · When you care for someone more than anything and they hurt you, there is no better way to get over it than to talk about it. Let them know and make them understand how you feel. Even if you don?t get anywhere by doing so, at least they will know how you feel so that you can?t say you didn?t try. It will make you feel a lot better in the long run. Words do wonders when expressed correctly, if they can understand the depth behind it. · Admit to it. Caught in a lie, or questioned about how you feel--just admit to it. If something is meant to be, than time will tell. Rocky in the beginning, maybe better in the end, maybe worse. That is the chance you take. As long as you are true to yourself, than you will get through it. · Being nice only has advantages. You get nowhere by being mean, except further behind. If you are nice, than people will like being around you. Being nice to people makes you feel better about yourself, and how you look upon yourself as a person. No one likes being called a bitch, or worse yet, knowing that they are one. · If you are having a bad day, pick your head up and smile. Chances are that your smile will be returned, brightening your day slightly. · Know people's personalities and how to take them. If someone is playfully mean all the time and just won?t stop, learn not to be offended. Them making you sad day after day will only hurt you, but if you learn not to be offended, chances are it will not bother you anymore. · Letting go of the past is VERY hard. Unfortunately, Things just can?t be the same all of the time. We live in a world full of things/people changing everyday. While things may be bad now, you can only hope for a better future. But never forget what?s in your heart. · People along your lifetime are what help mold you and make you into a better person. You learn things from people just by befriending them. Try to be friends with everyone, learn as much as you can until you become the person you want to be. Hold on to those along the way that you can relate to. But don't be afraid to let go of a friendship that is just not for you. · When you are happy with yourself, truly happy, than you will not doubt your decisions. You will trust yourself and know that the things you do are the best decision for you. · Not everyone needs to know everything about you. Keeping things to yourself are sometimes a better alternative. As long as you know who you are and where you came from, you can?t go wrong. · Never admit to something you didn't do just to make someone else happy. Stay true to yourself. · Be yourself. If someone doesn't like what you wear, it doesn't matter they are not the ones wearing it. If you are comfortable, and you like it, though it may be different, just be yourself and wear it. Take their criticism as if it doesn?t bother you. They are only making their comment because they are rude. As I said before, sometimes it is better to keep things to yourself. · Except your mistakes and learn by them. You don't know if it is wrong for you unless you try it once. If you try it and it is wrong and you do it again, that is your own fault. You need to truly learn what hurts you and what doesnt. By knowing this about yourself, it will help you to be happy. But at the same time?do not try things that you KNOW will hurt you. · It is good to be organized. The less confusion, the better. · Material things do not make you happy. It is the simpler things that make you happy. Sure it is always nice to posess nice things, but don?t let it run you. Getting carried away is not a good thing. Being smart with your money will give you security. |
