A much better "note in bottle thrown out to sea"!!  I didn't actually write
all this mushy stuff.  Someone sent it to me.




> It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is more
> painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let that person
> know how you feel.
> 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
> begrateful for that gift.
> Love is when you take away  the feeling, the passion, and the romance in a
> relationship and find out you still care for that person.
>
> A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only
> to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to
> let go.
> 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 the 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 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.  There are things
> you'd love to hear that you would never hear from the person whom you
> would like to hear them from, but don't be so deaf as not to hear it from
> the one who says it from his heart.

> Never say good-bye if you still want to try
> never give up if you still feel you can go on
> never say you don't love a person anymore if you can't let go
> Love comes to those who still hope
> although they've been disappointed,
> 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!  Hope you dream
> of that special someone.  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.
>
> Always put  yourself in others' shoes.
> If you feel that it hurts you,
> it probably  hurts the person too.
> A careless word may kindle strife
> a cruel word  may wreck a life;
> a timely word may level stress;
> a loving word may heal and bless.
>
> 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're the one who is smiling
> and everyone around you is crying.
