Maybe God wanted us to meet the 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.
Maybe 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.
Maybe 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.
Maybe it is true that we don't know what we have got until we lose
it, but it is also true that we don't know what we have been
missing until it arrives.
Maybe 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 heart, but if it does not, be content it grew in
yours.
Maybe 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.
Maybe you shouldn'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.
Maybe 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.
Maybe you should 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.
Maybe you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials
to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, and enough hope to make you happy.
Maybe you should always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel
that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too.
Maybe the happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of
everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way.
Maybe 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.
Maybe love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear.
Maybe 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.
Maybe when you were born, you were crying and everyone around you
was smiling. Live your life so that when you die, you are the one
who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
