It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return,

 

but what is more painful is to never have the courage to let that person know how you feel

 

 

Don’t go for looks;

they can deceived, don’t go for wealth,

even that fades away..

 

 

Go for someone who makes you smile

because it only takes a smile to make a dark day seem bright,

 

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…

 

 

A sad thing in life is

when to 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 a fiend is the kind that you can sit in the porch swing with, never say a word,

 

and then walked 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…

 

 

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 people may necessarily don’t have the best of everything

 

they just make the most of everything that comes along their way…

Here are six reasons why you should think before you speak the last one is great!

Have you ever spoken and wished that you could immediately take the words back…
or that you could crawl into a hole?

Here are the Testimonials of a few people who did….


FIRST TESTIMONY:

I walked into a hair salon with my husband and three kids in
tow and asked loudly, ‘How much do you charge for a shampoo
and a blow job?’
I turned around and walked back out and never went back.  My
husband didn’t say a word… he knew better.


SECOND TESTIMONY:

I was at the golf store comparing different kinds of golf balls.
I was unhappy with the women’s type I had been using.
After browsing for several minutes, I was approached by one
of the good-looking gentlemen
who works at the store.  He
He asked if he could help me.  Without thinking, I looked
at him and said, ‘I think I like playing with men’s balls.’


THIRD TESTIMONY:

My sister and I were at the mall and passed by a store that sold a
variety of candy and nuts.  As we were looking at the display case,
the boy behind the counter asked if we needed any help.  I
replied, ‘No, I’m just looking at your nuts.’  My sister started
to laugh hysterically.  The boy grinned, and I turned beet-red
and walked away.  To this day, my sister has never let me forget.


FOURTH TESTIMONY :

While in line at the bank one afternoon, my toddler decided to
release some pent-up energy and ran amok.  
I was finally able to
grab hold of
her after receiving looks of disgust and annoyance
from other patrons.
 I told her that if she did not start behaving
‘right now’ she would be punished.   To my horror, she looked me
in the eye and said in a
voice just as threatening, ‘If you don’t
let me go right now, I will tell Grandma that I saw you kissing
Daddy’s pee-pee last night!’  The silence was deafening after
this enlightening exchange.  Even the tellers stopped what they
were doing.  I mustered up the last of my dignity and walked
out of the bank with my daughter in tow.  The last thing I heard
when the door closed behind me, were screams of laughter.


FIFTH TESTIMONY:
Have you ever asked your child a question too many times?
My three-year-old son had a lot of problems with potty training
and I was on him constantly.  One day we stopped at Taco Bell
for a quick lunch
in between errands.  It was very busy, with a
full dining room.  While enjoying my taco, I smelled something
funny, so of course I checked
my seven-month-old daughter,
she was clean.  Then realized that Danny
had not asked to go
potty in a while.  I asked him if he needed to go, and he said
‘No’.  I kept thinking ‘Oh Lord, that child has had an
accident,
and I don’t have any clothes with me.’  Then I said, ‘Danny,
are you SURE you didn’t have an accident?’  ’No,’ he replied.

I just KNEW that he must have had an accident, because
the smell was getting worse.  Soooooo, I asked one more time,
‘Danny, did you have an accident?’  This time he jumped up,
yanked down his pants, spread his cheeks
and yelled
‘SEE MOM…. IT’S JUST FARTS!!’


While 30 people nearly choked to death on their tacos laughing,
he calmly pulled up his pants and sat down.  An old couple made
me feel better, thanking me for the best laugh they’d ever had!


LAST BUT NOT LEAST TESTIMONY:

This had most of the state of Michigan laughing for 2 days and a very
embarrassed female news anchor who will, in the future,
likely think before she speaks.  What happens when you
predict snow but don’t get any!  We had a female news anchor
that, the day after it was supposed to have snowed and didn’t,
turned to the weatherman and asked:  ’So Bob, where’s that  
8 inches you promised me last night?’  Not only did HE have to
leave the set, but half the crew did too…they were laughing so hard!



Now, didn’t that feel good?  Pass it on to someone you know who needs a laugh and remember we all say things we don’t really mean, so think before you speak.


INTERVIEW OF WARREN BUFFET


There was a one hour interview on CNBC with Warren Buffet, the second richest man who has donated $31 billion to charity. Here are some very interesting aspects of his life:


1. He bought his first share at age 11 and he now regrets that he started too late!

2. He bought a small farm at age 14 with savings from delivering newspapers.

3. He still lives in the same small 3-bedroom house in mid-town Omaha , that he bought after he got married 50 years ago. He says that he has everything he needs in that house. His house does not have a wall or a fence.

4. He drives his own car everywhere and does not have a driver or security people around him.

5. He never travels by private jet, although he owns the world’s largest private jet company.

6. His company, Berkshire Hathaway, owns 63 companies. He writes only one letter each year to the CEOs of these companies, giving them goals for the year. He never holds meetings or calls them on a regular basis. He has given his CEO’s only two rules. Rule number 1: do not lose any of your share holder’s money. Rule number 2: Do not forget rule number 1.

7. He does not socialize with the high society crowd. His past time after he gets home is to make himself some pop corn and watch Television.

8. Bill Gates, the world’s richest man met him for the first time only 5 years ago. Bill Gates did not think he had anything in common with Warren Buffet. So he had scheduled his meeting only for half hour. But when Gates met him, the meeting lasted for ten hours and Bill Gates became a devotee of Warren Buffet.

9. Warren Buffet does not carry a cell phone, nor has a computer on his desk.
