Thoughts On Life's Road

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 every 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.

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,
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 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.
