WORDS TO PONDER (long)

Lindsays Grandma — Wed, 25 Jul 2018 04:35:30 GMT

Maturity is when you have the power to destroy someone

who did you wrong but you just breathe, walk away and let

life take care of them.

Never discredit your gut instinct.

You aren't paranoid, your body can

pick up on bad vibrations. If something

deep inside of you says something is not

right about a person, trust your instinct.

THE HARDEST PRISON TO ESCAPE FROM IS THE MIND.

No one notices your

Tears,

No one notices your

Sadness,

No one notices your

Pain,

but they all notice your

Mistakes.

The way I was raised,

if you have something to say

to somebody...you tell them

to their face.

I've already been through h*ll so it is

time to give it my best shot.

Not only will I survive, I will win.

Karma comes after everyone. You can't get away with messing

people over your whole life, I don't care who you are,

what goes around, comes around. That's how it works.

Sooner or later the universe will serve you the revenge

you deserve.

A child is going to remember who was there.

Not what U spent on them.

A child can outgrow a toy and outfit.

But never time and love.

Your beliefs become your thoughts,

Your thoughts become your actions,

Your actions become your habits,

Your habits become you.

Sometimes people cry, not because they are weak,

but because they have been strong for too long.

Even though there are days I wish I could change some things

that happened in the past, there's a reason the rear view

mirror is so small and the windshield is so big, where you're

headed is much more important than what you've left behind.

You will never find the right person if

you don't let go of the wrong one.

No matter how broken you feel, you can put yourself

back together with love. It's not always going to be

easy, and it won't happen overnight, but you are

strong enough to fill the cracks in your heart with

unbreakable and unconditional love.

If someone wants to walk out of your life, let them go.

Actually, hold the door open for them. Don't ever beg

anyone to stay. If they don't see any value in having

you in their life, forget them. LIFE IS TOO SHORT

TO RUN MILES AFTER PEOPLE WHO WOULDN'T

TAKE A STEP FOR YOU.

Depression isn't always sadness, it can also be emptiness,

anger, tiredness or loneliness. Sometimes a cry for help

isn't so visible.

Let me tell you something you already know.

The world ain't all sunshine and rainbows.

It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't

care how tough you are it will beat you to your

knees and keep you there permanently if you let it.

You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life.

But it ain't about how hard you hit, it's about

how hard you get hit and keep moving. How much

you can take and keep moving forward.

That's how winning is done.

I wish my mother had read some of those sayings, especially the part about children remembering who was there. I hope I learned from her mistakes and didn't make too many of my own.

I oftentimes won't open a thread if it comes with the "long" warning, but when I saw who the OP was, I was sure I'd want to read it. Thanks for sharing this @Lindsays Grandma. I thoroughly enjoyed reading each and every word. Yes, so much to ponder! As @OKPrincess said, these are words to be kept and reviewed from time to time.

You just made me cry, tears of gratitude. I have been through many hard times in my life and I never let them get me down. I always fought my way through with no ones help, that is because I had a great deal of self worth, thanks to my parents.
