“There are events and experiences that we don’t want to happen, but they do happen and we have no choice but to accept them; things we don’t want to know but have to learn, and people we can’t live without but have to let go.” — Author Unknown

We never get what we want,
We never want what we get,
We never have what we like,
We never like what we have.
And still, we live and love.
That’s life…

“If you don’t get everything you want, think of the things you don’t get that you don’t want.” — Oscar Wilde

It’s true that we don’t know
What we’ve got until it’s gone,
But it’s also true that we don’t know
What we’ve been missing until it arrives.

Always put yourself in others’ shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too.

Always remember and appreciate
Those people who mean something to you,
Those who have touched your life in one way or another,
Those who make you smile when you really need it,
Those that make you see the brighter side of things when you are really down,
Let them know that you appreciate their friendship.

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.

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!

The happiest of people don’t necessarily have the best of everything. They just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Therefore, learn to discover happiness in the smallest and the most insignificant things.

Happiness lies for
Those who cry,
Those who feel hurt,
Those who have searched,
And those who have tried,
For only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives…

When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life in such a way so that at the time of death, you will be the one who will be smiling and everyone around you will be crying.

May 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.
