Email from Kamalini Kanapathippillai:-
We seldom get what we want,
We
seldom want what we get,
We
seldom have what we like,
We
seldom like what we have.
And
still we live & love.
That's
life...
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 that we don't know
What
we've got until it's gone,
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 an 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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
Please
send this message
To
those people who mean something to you,
To
those who have touched your life in one way or another,
To
those who make you smile when you really need it,
To
those that make you see the brighter side of things When you are really down,
To
those who you want to know
That
you appreciate their friendship.
And if
you don't, don't worry,
Nothing
bad will happen to you,
You
will just miss out on the opportunity
to
brighten someone's life with this message...
