"Maybe" <P>Maybe God wanted us to meet the wrong people before <BR>meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the <BR>right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift. <P>Maybe when the door of happiness closes, another <BR>opens, but often times we look so long at the closed <BR>door that we don't see the one which has been opened <BR>for us. <P>Maybe the best kind of friend is the kind you can sit <BR>on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then <BR>walk away feeling like it was the best conversation <BR>you've ever had. <P>Maybe it is true that we don't know what we have got <BR>until we lose it, but it is also true that we don't <BR>know what we have been missing until it arrives. <P>Giving someone all your love is never an assurance <BR>that they will love you back. Don't expect love in <BR>return; just wait for it to grow in their heart; but <BR>if it does not, be content it grew in yours. <P>It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an <BR>hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but <BR>it takes a lifetime to forget someone. <P>Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for <BR>wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes <BR>you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark <BR>day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart <BR>smile. <P>There are moments in life when you miss someone so <BR>much that you just want to pick them from your dreams <BR>and hug them for real. <P>Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; <BR>be what you want to be, because you have only one life <BR>and one chance to do all the things you want to do. <P>Relationships are not renewed with pride and rejection, <BR>they are renewed with forgiveness and determination.<P>Marriage is not the answer to loneliness, <BR>it is a lifetime of happiness. <BR>Divorce is not the answer to happiness, <BR>it is an lifetime of loneliness. <P>Divorce is an excuse, not a solution.<P>May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, <BR>enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to <BR>keep you human, enough hope to make you happy. <P>Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that <BR>it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too. <P>The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best <BR>of everything; they just make the most of everything <BR>that comes along their way. <P>Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, <BR>those who have searched, and those who have tried, for <BR>only they can appreciate the importance of people who <BR>have touched their lives. <P>Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends <BR>with a tear. <P>The brightest future will always be based on a <BR>forgotten past, you can't go on well in life until you <BR>let go of your past failures and heartaches. <P>When you were born, you were crying and everyone <BR>around you was smiling. Live your life so that when <BR>you die, you are the one who is smiling and everyone <BR>around you is crying. <BR>
