A NIce Philosophy

Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so when we finally meet the right person we will know how to be grateful for that gift.

When one door of happiness closes, another opens, but we often look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one that has opened before us.

The best kind of friend is the kind that you can sit on a front porch swing with, never say a word, then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation that you ever had.

It is true we don't know what we have until we lose it, but it is also true we don't know what we've 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 hearts, but if it doesn't be content it grew in yours. It only takes a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like 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 that makes you smile because it only takes a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile.

There are moments in life that you miss somoene so much that you just want to pick them up 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 only have one life and chance to do all the things that 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 that cry, those who have hurt, those who have searched, and for 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 well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches,

When you were born you were crying and everone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling and everyone aroung you is crying.
