Life it’s amazing but it's also hard,sad and happy at the same time.i guess i would know because i've been living it for 14 years. And in these 14 years i've learned so many things and here are the major 14 things i've learned


1.  You don’t need a ton of friends… you don’t need a ton of friends to make you happy, you only need about two or three  

2. The difference between someone who calls you their friend and a actual friend… there are always those people who are pretty much fake and call you their friend and go behind your back; and talk bad and there are those two or three people always that you are your actual friends.

3. Be kind… even if you don’t like someone, be kind because you don’t know if they are going through something at home.

4. Don’t lie… don’t lie because trust me it will get you in more trouble then how much trouble you are originally going to be in .

5 . Have faith that God is always with you… even if you don't feel God or see him he’s always with you so don’t lose faith

5. You can trust very few people… trust is something that is very hard to find because in life people will lie to you and take from you but you can find those few people like your family who you can trust.

6. Don’t leave your straightener on your hair to long… let’s just say if you do this you have the potential to burn your hair off

7. Football is boring… it’s literally the most boring sport to play and watch.

8. If someone doesn’t wanna be in your life don't make them be…if someone doesn’t wanna be in your life or be friends with you don’t keep trying because they obviously don’t care enough so why should you


9. You don’t have to please everyone… don’t do what makes other people happy or please them do what you want not what they want

10. People are going to not like you know matter how hard you try to make them like you… people are not always going to like you and you just have to accept that.

11. Some friends are only phases… some people are only meant to be in your life for a certain period of time and when they leave you or something just remember that it's God’s plan for you

12 sometimes when you get what want your still not happy… sometimes when we get what what we want we still aren’t happy with what we have.

13. Pay attention to where you are walking… when you don’t pay attention well for me usually i end up hurting myself.

14. You can't change someone unless they want a change for themselves...no matter how hard you try to change someone they aren’t going to change unless they really want too.
