What I have Learned

I've learned that you can never dream too big, wish too far, or hope too much.

I've learned that things are not always what they seem, and usually when there's no hope to be found, that's where hope is most abundant.

I've learned that you can never simply look at the surface, but rather look at the root of the issue...there you will find what the truth of the matter is, and learn what to do.

I've learned that sometimes that voice that won't leave you alone is almost always right...I say almost because sometimes that little voice is your own telling you the wrong thing.

I've learned that sometimes the road less traveled is the one you really need to follow....Let me rephrase that, the barbarian road is the one you must travel in order to find life.

I've learned that trusting God and not yourself really is the best way to go...maybe we should listen to the last seven thousand years of wisdom.

I've learned that light can often be seen, even in the darkest times....sometimes that light is the only thing we see.

I've learned that when you don't trust God, He finds someone to help you know what it feels like.

I've learned that when you really do reach rock bottom, the only way to go really is up....and sometimes you reach the clouds.

I've learned that when you feel abandoned and alone, the One who's usually left is the one you should stand beside forever.

I've learned that when you've been hurt beyond words, sometimes it's just best to love back beyond words...even if it nearly kills you.

I've learned that when your on your knees with grief, your in the perfect position to pray with everything in you.

I've learned that when you fall down, the hardest thing is to get back up and start all over again...even if it's down a different path...but it's the right thing to do.

I've learned that when there are nothing but clouds in your sky, there is always some little glimmer of sunshine....no matter how small and insignificant it may seem.

I've learned a lot over the last year. But I wouldn't trade it for the world. I have a lot of learning left to do, and I can't wait.
