We learn from our mistakes.

There will be times in your life.

Sometimes, you can't speak to others.
 |
Sometimes, you just can't speak to others about how you're really feeling. It's not because you don't want to or because you don't trust them. It's because you simply can't find the right words to make them understand. ~ by Dave Hedges |

Remember, the greatest gift is not found in a store or under a tree, but in the hearts of true friends. Merry Christmas. |
Life is about the choices you make.
 |
Life is not about expecting, hoping and wishing, it's about doing, being and becoming. It's about the choices you have just made, the ones you're going to make, it’s about the very things you choose to say today. It's about what you are going to do after you have finished reading this. So choose wisely. ~ by Dave Hedges |
When I look back on my life.
 | |
|
The best gift we can give our children.
 |
The best gift we can give our children, to teach them the valuable lessons they need in this life, is to be there for them. To guide them through the pitfalls they will face and show them how to become the best they can possibly be. Our children need our presence in their lives rather than the presents we bring into their lives. ~ by Dave Hedges |
Tomorrow is never promised.

We are only given today and never promised tomorrow. So make sure you tell the people who are special in your life that you love them |
Those who are close to you.

Doing nothing won't change a thing.
 |
If you love someone, tell them. If someone hurts you, let them know. If someone is taking advantage of you, stop them. Don't let your fear, uncertainty or lack of confidence stop you, because doing nothing will not change a thing and will only leave you wondering "what if?" ~ Written by Dave Hedges |
You will know who really loves you.
 |
In the end, you'll know who really loves you. They're the ones who see you for who you are and always find a way to be at your side. ~ by Dave Hedges |
Words to live your life by.
 |
This life is short, so live it. True love is rare, so grab it. Anger is hurtful, so let it go. Fear stops you doing, so face it. Friends support you, so cherish them. ~ by Dave Hedges |
You're a survivor, not a victim.

Despite all the things you've been through in your life, you must always hold your head up high and move forward with your life. You're a survivor, not a victim. ~ by Dave Hedges |
This very special hug is meant just for you.

Whether you're feeling happy, or feeling sad and blue. This very special HUG is meant just for you. I hope this hug makes you feel better and that good things will start to come your way. ~ by Dave Hedges |
Life is just too hard to get through alone.
 |
Just because someone seems ok, doesn't mean that everything in their life is. Even the strongest of people need to know that someone has their back and will always be there for them. Everyone, at some point, will need friends or family they can rely on and if needed, a shoulder to cry on. Life is just too hard to get through alone. Written by Dave Hedges |
When I post things on my wall...
 |
Just because I post it on my wall, doesn't mean I'm going through it and it doesn't mean it's being directed at anyone. Maybe it's just that I like what I read or what I see so I share it on my wall. ~ by Dave Hedges |
Our pain is not always obvious to others.

Never explain yourself to anyone. Because the person who likes you doesn't need it and the person who dislikes you won't believe it. ~ by Dave Hedges |
No more looking back.

Sometimes, you just have to take those small steps and move forward with your life No more questions, no more doubts, no more looking back. Just look to the future. ~ by Dave Hedges |
Put your happiness first.
 |
If someone in your life makes you unhappy more than they make you happy, it doesn't matter how much you love them or care about them, you have let them go. Not because you no longer care about them, but because you're finally putting your own needs and happiness first. ~ by Dave Hedges |
Keep your chin up.
 |
Amazing things seem to happen when you least expect them to. So keep your chin up, stay positive and keep faith. ~ by Dave Hedges |
I really miss you.

|
Let go of people that don't serve you.
 |
Let go of people that don't serve you. Negative people, dishonest people and people who don't respect you. You will never grow as a person, if you have people in your life who only hold you back. ~ by Dave Hedges |
Life will be happier when you have balance.

Life will always be happier when you have balance. Be kind to other people but never let those people take advantage. Allow yourself to trust others but refuse to let others lie to you. Be thankful for what you have but always strive to better yourself. ~ by Dave Hedges |
Never lose hope.

Bad things will happen in life.

Bad things will happen in life. People will use you. People will hurt you. But no matter what happens, you must never use that pain as an excuse to hurt others. ~ created by Dave Hedges |
That Fateful Day
 |
I can't forget that fateful day, you had to leave, you went away, A sadness filled me up inside, Emotions that I could not hide. Tears, they came, sadness too, All my emotions, just for you, Time will heal, so I was told, but time could never fill this hole. Here in my heart, there is a place, You're always there, keeping me safe, It's filled with love and happy times, It's never dark, your light it shines. In heaven now, you do reside, To watch over me, with love and pride, I know one day, we'll meet again, Until we do just know how much I miss you and you are always with me, always!
