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 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. 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.
