A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day....1-23-07....I Believe...

A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day
Free Republic made its debut in September, 1996, and the forum was added in early 1997.   Over 100,000 people have registered for posting privileges on Free Republic, and the forum is read daily by tens of thousands of concerned citizens and patriots from all around the country and the world.
A Few of FR's Finest....Every Day was introduced on June 24, 2002. It's only a small room in JimRob's house where we can get to know one another a little better; salute and support our military and our leaders; pray for those in need; and congratulate those deserving. We strive to keep our threads entertaining, fun, and pleasing to look at, and often have guest writers contribute an essay, or a profile of another FReeper.
On Mondays please visit us to see photos of A FEW OF FR'S VETERANS AND ACTIVE MILITARY
If you have a suggestion, or an idea, or if there's a FReeper you would like to see featured, please drop one of us a note in FR mail.
We're having fun and hope you are!

I believe -

. . . that just because two people argue, it doesn't mean they don't love each other. And just because they don't argue, it doesn't mean they do.

I believe -

. . . that we don't have to change friends if we understand that friends change.

I believe -

. . that no matter how good a friend is, they're going to hurt you every once in a while and you must forgive them for that.

I believe -

. . . that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance. Same goes for true love.

I believe -

. . . that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life.

I believe -

. . . that it's taking me a long time to become the person I want to be.

I believe -

. . . that you should always leave loved ones with loving words. It may be the last time you see them.

I believe -

. . . that you can keep going long after you think you can't.

I believe -

. . . that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel.

I believe -

. . . that either you control your attitude or it controls you.

I believe -

. . . That heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences.

I believe -

. . . that money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I believe -

. . . that my best friend and I can do anything or nothing and have the best time.

I believe -

. . . that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down, will be the ones to help you get back up.

I believe -

. . . that sometimes when I'm angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel

I believe -

. . . that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had and what you've learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.

I believe -

. . . that it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others. Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I believe -

. . . that no matter how bad your heart is broken the world doesn't stop for your grief.

I believe -

. .. . that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become.
I believe -

. . . that you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret. It could change your life forever.

I believe -

. . . two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different.

I believe -

. . . that at your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don't even know you.

I believe -

. . . that even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you - you will find the strength to help.

I believe -

. . . that credentials on the wall do not make you a decent human being.

I believe -

. . . that the people you care about most in life are taken from you too soon.



I believe -

. . . In my creator God who loved me enough to give his Son’s life for me

I believe…..












What are some truisms in your life? What pithy sayings resonate to your soul? What would you like your legacy to be in one or two sentences? What would you like on your grave stone to be the one thought that is “you”? What do you believe?

Dolly, your opening is beautiful - sentiments and your beautiful collage at the top, down to the gorgeous red rose at the bottom.

Am way ready for this winter storm to let up!

Also hate to hear you are under the weather, and hope you can have a chance to get some rest and get to feeling better very soon. Stay WARM!

Yes I know what you are talking about. Women have always thought the world would stop if they spent a sick day in bed. That is why we can't get better. We are use to nursing others and we think we have to keep going. That thing I had Thanksgiving week kept hanging on through Christmas. I was good enough to get things ready for Christmas but it was a tough job. I pretended I felt better than I did! We women just are made that way, I guess! Please try to get rest and lots of O.J....the house will wait! Someone should have told me that when I was younger....LOL!
