I know This is a Long Post, but Maybe IF you read it all it will touch points in your life we all tend to take for granted! :wink:
Maybe . . .we were supposed to meet the 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. (Funny what you can learn about our selfs from a failed relationship )
Maybe . When the door of happiness closes, another opens; but, often times, we look so long at the closed door that we don't even see the new one which has been opened for us. ( don't waste time feeling sorry for your self use that energy to reach for the next door all you have to do is open it and walk in )
Maybe . . . It is true that we don't know what we have until we lose it, but it is also true that we don't know what we have been missing until it arrives.
( Yeahhhhhhhhh Like when I got Emmy!)
Maybe . . . The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. (I repeated this same line to my kids as they were growing up!)
Maybe . . . The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past; after all, you can't go on successfully in life until you let go of your past mistakes, failures and heartaches. (Amen to that!)
Maybe . . . You should 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 dream of, and want to do. ( yep so true!! like when I went to Cedar Hill, and Kentucky that last two years! I wanted to go ~~~~~~~~ so I went! )
Maybe . . There are moments in life when you miss someone -- a parent, a spouse, a love, a friend, a child -- so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real, so that once they are around you appreciate them more. (Remember this the next time you're angry at the person you love best ~as they walk away from you due to your anger)
Maybe . . . 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. (Been there done that and silence was precious )
Maybe . . You should always try to put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that something could hurt you, it probably will hurt the other person, too. (another golden rule of life :wink: )
Maybe . . you should do something nice for someone every single day, even if it is simply to leave them alone. (Yep I leave Dwight alone ~~ Alot! He likes that I'm nice to him!)
Maybe . . .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 that it grew in yours. ( then you'll know you have the ability to love unconditionally :ding: )
Maybe . Happiness waits for all those who cry, all those who hurt, all those who have searched, and all those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of all the people who have touched their lives. ( we've all experienced those bitter sweet tears )
Maybe . . . You shouldn'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. (My grandchildren makes my heart smile,, My sisters makes my heart smile, and My friends at GH makes my heart smile,, and Dwight not complaining about my cut hours at work and not being able to contribute to the household now as much as I did definitely makes me heart smile!)
Maybe . . You should hope for 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 (I admire those who show humor and strength even in their darkest hour)
Maybe . You should try to live your life to the fullest because when you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling but when you die, you can be the one who is smiling and everyone around you crying. (I told My kids don't cry when I'm gone,, Have a party, feed everyone BBQ, and play some old Motown and blues music,, and Get down!!! No tears!!)
Maybe. . . You could send this message to those people who mean something to you, to those who have touched your life, to those who can and do make you smile when you really need it, to those who make you see the brighter side of things when you are really down, and to all those whom you want to know that you appreciate them and their friendship.
That would be you my friends,, Here at the GardenHelper!
Maybe you had the opportunity to perhaps brighten someone's day.
(I try to make a point of it everyday ~ Do You????)

Maybe . When the door of happiness closes, another opens; but, often times, we look so long at the closed door that we don't even see the new one which has been opened for us.
Maybe . . . The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past; after all, you can't go on successfully in life until you let go of your past mistakes, failures and heartaches. ****** Took me many years to accept this one,, But I finally did and learn to just keep moving forward!!
