MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY - LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO BE SAD!

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 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'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,

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

don't necessarily

have the best of everything;

they just make the most of everything

that comes along their way.

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.

  

I am sending you this message to let
You know that life is beautiful,
make the best of it and be happy,
laugh uncontrollably, smile even in hard times
and always see the brighter side of things...
so that when you are no longer around
Your impact will be felt in the amount of lives you were able to affect with your endearing smiles.
