    So. lots of people have already told you that you are great. And I can't think of an original way to say it, so I am leaving you some "words of Wisdom".

    This should probably be taped to your bathroom mirror where one could read it every day.

    You may not realize it, but it's 100% true.


    1. There are at least two people in this world that you would die for.

    2. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way.

    3. The only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you.

    4. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you.

    5. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep.

    6. You mean the world to someone.

    7. You are special and unique.

    8. Someone that you don't even know exists loves you.

    9. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it.

    10. When you think the world has turned its back on you take another look.

    11. Always remember the compliments you received.

    12, Forget about the rude remarks.


    And always remember....

    when life hands you Lemons, ask for Tequila and Salt and call me over!
