Maybe God wants us to meet a few 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.
When the door of happiness closes,another opens,but often times we look so long at the closed door that we dont 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.

Its true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it,but its 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.

Dont 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 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 dont 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.

Your entire list seemed wonderful, except for this one. How many people do you really know who think that way?

Ah man!!

I cried when I first read that......I feel like I have been blessed in the last couple weeks... I have gotton 2 of the best friends I have ever had along with thier whole family.......

I was out of it,didnt wanna live anymore and felt hopeless all of last year and now..... Last June I met some people who I thought were my friends and for a month they were,then they turned on me severely and I have been a mental mess since last July or so....

I have just met these people and already they are MUCH MORE LOVING AND CARING than the ones from last year.... If I didnt start looking for them again,I probably would still be trying to get the ppl form last year back which now I can see are horrible people compared to the friends I have now....

Dude111, never give people that kind of power. Unfortunately, it is part of life in dealing with toxic people who are going to treat you unkindly. Walk away from them and never look back. Also, learn to love yourself so you do not deal with others' bullcrap.

:hugs:


I am glad to hear that you met some wonderful friends; just remember you are the only person responsible for your own happiness, not others.

Glad that you are getting your emotional affairs back in order. I too find that I now in my later years get weepy over sentimental things, such as when a movie's "bad guy" crosses everyone up by saving the day....stuff like that.

One of the harder lessons in life for me to learn, was the difference between a friend vs someone I just shared common interests with.

Nice post Dude, it's true we come into this world crying and all around are happy and laughing and going out many are in so much pain and no laughing around all that. Often I feel like crying with the arthritic pain I live in, and will vent to friends and family and then I have to end up laughing and I can conger up laughter. There are so many worse off than me. Thanks again...

Just a thought, yes, many have lost some friends, some long time, and if people were all sheep and followed the "rules" so many follow out there, one can keep all their friends, but lose themselves. I'm referring to this virus disaster we're all going thru, our way or their way.
