maybe

came across this today. certainly struck me as it's something im gg through with atm.

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, aspouse, 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
with 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.
