I don't
know who wrote this one,
but it
was sent to me by a good friend in Minnesota,
and I
think there's alot of truth in it.
Thanks
Kevin.
It
hurts to love someone and not be loved in return,
but
what is more painful is to love someone
and
never find the courage
to let
that person know how you feel.
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.
Love
is when you take away the feeling,
the passion,
and the romance in a relationship
and find
out you still care for that person.
A
sad thing in life is when you meet someone
who means
a lot to you,
only
to find out in the end that
it was
never meant to be
and you
just have to let go.
When
the door of happiness closes,
another
opens but oftentimes 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.
There
are things you'd love to hear
that you
would never hear from
the person
whom you would like to hear them from,
but don't
be so deaf
as not
to hear it from the one
who says
it from his heart.
Never
say good-bye if you still want to try --
never
give up if you still feel you can go on --
never
say you don't love a person anymore
if you
can't let go.
Love
comes to those who still hope
although
they've been disappointed-
to
those who still believe, although they've been betrayed,
to those
who still need to love,
although
they've been hurt before,
and to
those who have the courage and faith to build
trust
again.
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.
Hope you
find the one that makes
you
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!
Hope you
dream of that special someone.
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 and
enough
money to meet your needs.
Always
put yourself in others' shoes.
If you
feel that it hurts you,
it
probably hurts the person too.
A
careless word may kindle strife;
a cruel
word may wreck a life;
a timely
word may level stress;
a loving
word may heal and bless.
The
beginning of love
is to
let those we love be just themselves,
and not
twist them with our own image -
otherwise,
we love only the
reflection
of ourselves we find in them.
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.
