Good Advice...
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 that 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.
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.
