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 will 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.

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.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,
enough times to make you strong, enough sorrow
to keep you human, and enough hope to make you happy.

The happiest of people don't necessarily
have the best of everything; they just make
the most of everything that comes along their way.
