Maybe

Maybe God wanted us to meet the 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.

Maybe 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.

Maybe 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.

Maybe it is true that we don't know what
we have until we lose it, but it is also true
that we don't know what we have been
missing until it arrives.

Giving someone all your love is never an
assurance that they will love
you back. Don't expect love in return;
just wait for it to grow in their
heart; but if it does not, 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 hope to make you happy.

     
Always put yourself in other's 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 are the one who is smiling and everyone
around you is crying.

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.

Have a great day!
