THERE ARE MOMENTS IN LIFE

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!

>

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.

>

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.

>

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 and

enough hope to make you happy.

>

The happiest of people don't necessarily

have the best of everything;

they just make the most of

everything that comes along their way.

>

The brightest future will always

be based on a forgotten past.

You can't go forward 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 at the end,

you're the one who is smiling and everyone

around you is crying.

>

Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take;

but by the moments that take our breath away.

Your line about looking too long at the closed door is so true. Thanks for the reminder to look through the open one.
