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. God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right person,so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful 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. 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. When the door of happiness closes, another opens but often times we look so hard at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porchswing 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 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 an assurance that they'll love you back! Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their hearts 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 who you would like to hear it from,but don't be so deaf as not to hear it from the one who says it from his heart. Love comes to those who still hope although they've been disappointed, to those who still believe although they've been betrayed, to those who still love although they've been hurt before. 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. Hope you find the one of your dreams. There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them out of your dreams and hug them for real! Hope you find the one who makes you smile. 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 want to do. Pray you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy. Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the person too. 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 beginning of love is to let those we love be just themselves, and not twist them with our own image--otherwise, we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes 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 smiling and everyone else around you is crying.

My name is Rebecca Lynn (BECKY) I am the widowed mother of two boys Preston is 17 yrs old and profoundly autistic ( Non Verbal) but he is a sweetheart, and he is at the very least HAPPY! Brandon is 12 yrs old and he is ADD,without the hyper part thank goodness :) but I don't like his laziness either, but we can't have it all I suppose,I was married to there dad Joey for 13 yrs, Joey supposedly committed suicide,with his girlfriends 357, I think it was made to look like a suicide although Joey had been a very depressed person from very early in life I don't think he would have done that and not tell his children goodbye, we do miss him and we are sad this is how he left the world.I do have faith that one day if there was really wrong doing in Joey's death that JUSTICE will eventually get the ONE responsiable for taking my children's dad away from them. I am a breast cancer survivor , I had a bilateral mastectomy Feb 7th 2008,started reconstruction the same day as the mastectomy,had tissue expanders done and had the implants placed April 22,2008,had complex nipple reconstruction September 17th, 2008, they made the areola and nipples with my own under arm skin, they did an amazing job, I was very blessed to have such a highly skilled plastic surgeon, Dr Eric Emerson @ Southeastern Plastic Surgery Of Gastonia NC. He is a very caring Dr, and you don't find that much these days, he totally focuses on your satisfaction, and any questions that you might have he answers them very well, and in a way you can understand it,awesome Dr. indeed thanks so much Dr Emerson to you and your awesome staff, I appreciate the fabulous care you all extended to me during a very scary part of my life, again ty very much.I have been blessed..... I had a complete hysterectomy, October 29th 2008 ovaries and all.......wahooOooO NO more periods..YAY but these hot flashes are alittle out there at times but I hear it will subside as time goes by, can't do the hormones because of the higher risk for cancer that I now have,although my cancer wasn't hormone related still can't take hormones... Yeah you do the math I had 4 surgeries in a 8 months time frame 27 hours of it and here I am!!!I'm Ok though.... HEY DONT SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF...THINGS WIL BE OK! More Later :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ THE BEST USE OF LIFE IS LOVE..... LOVE should be your top priority,primary objective, and greatest ambition. LOVE is not a "GOOD" part of your life, its the MOST IMPORTANT part!Let LOVE be your greatest aim.It's not enough to say, "One of the things I want in life is tobe "LOVING" as if it's in your TOP TEN list. RELATIONSHIPS must have PRIORITY in your life above everything else. WHY?? Because life without LOVE is really worthless.No matter what I say, what I do, I'm bankrupt without LOVE!!!Often we act as if relationships are something to be squeezed into our schedule. We talk about finding time for our children or "making" time for people in our lives. That gives the impression that relationships are just a part of our lives along with many other tasks.But RELATIONSHIPS are what life is all about!!FOUR OF THE TEN COMMANDMENTS deal with our relationship to GOD while the other six deal with relationships with people!!But all TEN COMMANDMENTS are about RELATIONSHIPS!!What matters most LOVE GOD and LOVE PEOPLE! BUSYNESS is a great enemy to relationships. We become preoccupied with making a living, doing our work,paying bills and accomplishing goals as if these tasks are the "POINT" of life! THEY ARE NOT. The "POINT" of life is learning to LOVE--- GOD & PEOPLE. Life minus LOVE = ZERO."These three things continue forever, FAITH, HOPE, LOVE, LOVE being the greatest. LOVE LEAVES A LEGACY. How you have treated other people, not your wealth or accomplishments, is the most enduring impact you can leave on earth FORGIVENESS is not something we do for OTHER PEOPLE, we do it for OURSELVES to GET WELL and MOVE ON!!!!!!!!!!! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ******************************************************* ******************************************************* ******************************************************* ******************************************************* I am me and always will be....I live with NO REGRETS....I HAVE LEARNED ALOT AND TAUGHT ALOT IM SATISFIED!!!!*********************************************** ************************************************************ ************************************************************ ********** ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ You have come into my life Through a door I was afraid Would never be open again For many have slammed it On their way outSo please feel free To stay as long as you like But should the time come That you must leave Please, close the door gently As you go~ ********* Noone can determine who I am but me my parents can't, my employer can't, my friends can't, they can guide me, but in the final analysis, the problem is completely mine for I have abilities that are completely unique to me and the challenge of Life is for me to discover them, to develop them,to use them, for then and only then will I know WHO I AM! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
