Maybe God wants us
to meet a few wrong people before meeting the
right one so that
when we finally meet the right person, we will know how
to be grateful for
that gift.
When the door of happiness
closes, another opens, but often times
we look so long at
the closed door that we don't see the one which has been
opened for us.
The best kind of friend
is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with,
never say a word,
and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation
you've ever had.
It's true that we don't
know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true
that we don't know
what we've been missing until it arrives.
Giving someone all
your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back!
Don't expect love
in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart but if it doesn't, be
content it grew in yours.
It takes only a minute
to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and
a day to love someone,
but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.
Don't go for looks;
they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away.
Go for someone who
makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark
day seem bright.
Find the one that makes
your heart smile.
There are moments
in life when you miss someone so much that you just
want to pick them
from your dreams and hug them for real!
Dream what you want
to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to
be, because you have
only one life and one chance to do all the things you
want to do.
May you have enough happiness to make you sweet enough, trials to make you strong enough, sorrow to keep you human enough, and hope to make you happy.
Always put yourself
in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it
probably hurts the
other person, too.
The happiest of people
don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just
make the most of everything
that comes along their way.
Happiness lies for
those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and
those who have tried,
for only they can appreciate the importance of people who
have touched their
lives.
Love begins with a
smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear. The brightest
future will always
be based on a forgotten past, you can't go on well in life until
you let go of your
past failures and heartaches.
When you were born,
you were crying and everyone around you was smiling.
Live your life so
that when you die, you're the one who is smiling and everyone
around you is crying.
Spread some love today
in someone elses' life - and it
will always return
to you tomorrow. Invest your
time with your friends,
family or someone that needs
to be told today that
you are there for them.
Please send this message
to those people who mean something to you, to those
who have touched your
life in one way or another, to those who make you smile when you really
need it, to those that make you see the brighter side of things when you
are really down, to those who you want to let them know that you appreciate
their friendship.
And if you don't, don't
worry, nothing bad will happen to you, you will just miss
out on the opportunity
to brighten someone's day with this message.
Life is not a 'fairy-tale'
- neither are true friends or genuine love. Sometimes they pass once through
our lives - and we take them for granted.
Live each day
of your life as though it was your last...
then you'll discover
what is really important in your life.
If someone has hurt
you FORGIVE THEM!! You don't have
to be WITH them
or LIKE them - but PLEASE take time to FORGIVE
anyone from the PAST,
or PRESENT.....only THEN can you face..
YOUR FUTURE with a SMILE and the Wonderful Gift called..
LIFE!
Take Care!!
