September 27,2009 Acts of Kindness 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... when the door of happiness closes, another one 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... 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 when it arrives. Maybe...the happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything they have that comes their way. Maybe...the brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past; after all, you can't go one successfully in life until you let go of your past mistakes, failures, and heartaches. Maybe...you should dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go, be what you want to be, because you only have one life and one chance to do all the things you dream of, and want to do. 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, you appreciate them more. Maybe...the best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch an d swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had. 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! Maybe...you should do something nice for someone every single day, even if it is simply to leave them alone. Maybe... giving someone all your love is never an assurance they will love you back. 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. Maybe ...you shouldn't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth, for 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. Actually, we should hope for enough happiness to make us kind, enough trials to make us strong, enough sorrow to keep us human, and enough hope to make us happy. And then,we need to always remember to pray for peace. Have a beautiful peaceful week!
