"Just one act of yours may turn the tide of another person's life."
ARE YOU REASON, A SEASON, OR A LIFETIME?
People come into your life for a reason, a season or a lifetime. When you figure out which one it is, you will know what to do for each person.
When someone is in your life for a REASON. . . It is usually to meet a need you have expressed. They have come to assist you through a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support, to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually. They may seem like a godsend, and they are! They are there for the reason you need them to be. Then, without any wrongdoing on your part, or at an inconvenient time, this person will say or do something to bring the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes they walk away. Sometimes they act up and force you to take a stand. What we must realize is that our need has been met, our desire fulfilled, their work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered. And now it is time to move on.
Then people come into your life for a SEASON. Because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn. They bring you an experience of peace, or make you laugh. They may teach you something you have never done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons: things you must build upon in order to have a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept the lesson, love the person, and put what you have learned to use in all other relationships and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind but friendship is clairvoyant.
"Dream like you'll live forever.
Live like you'll die tomorrow.

"True love is like a ghost; everyone talks about it, few have seen it."
"Love is friendship, friendship is love. If love fails, friendship should remain, friendship is the foundation of love; it is much easier to turn a friendship into love that love into friendship."

hours by people who don't even know you."

that we don't have to change friends
if we understand that friends change."

even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love."

Morning Poem
I woke up early one morning, the earth lay cool and still, When suddenly a
tiny bird, perched on my window sill. He sang a song so lovely, So carefree
and so gay, That slowly all my troubles, Began to slip away, He sang of
far-off places, Of laughter and and of fun, It seemed his very singing
brought up the morning sun. I stirred beneath the covers, Crept slowly out
of bed,
Then gently shut the window And crushed his fucking head.
I'm not a morning person.
"Whoever said money can't buy happiness didn't know where to shop."
"If you're going to do something wrong, at least enjoy it."
>Maybe we are meant 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.
>Maybe 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.
>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.
>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.
>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 does not, 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 happines to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrows 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 are the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
