MAY BE

May Be...

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.

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.

   

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. 

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.

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.

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 . . . 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. 

May be . . you should do something nice  

 for someone every single day, 

even if  it is simply to leave them alone.

Maybe . . . there are moments in life when you miss someone -- 

a parent, a spouse, 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.

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.

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. 


"Life is only travelled ONCE; Today’s MOMENT becomes Tomorrow’s MEMORY. Enjoy every moment, good or bad, because the GIFT of LIFE is LIFE itself…."
