All wines should be tasted; some should only be sipped, but with others, drink the whole bottle.’ ‘How will I know which is which?’ ‘By the taste. You can only know a good wine if you have first tasted a bad one.” ~Paulo Coelho “What I learned in life is… That no matter how good a person is, sometimes they can hurt you and because of this we must forgive. It takes years to build trust and only seconds to destroy it. We don’t have to change friends if we understand that friends change. Our circumstances and the environment influence our lives, but we must be responsible for ourselves. You have to control your acts or they will control you. Patience requires much practice. There are people who love us, but simply don’t know how to show it. That sometimes the person you think will hurt you and make you fall is instead the one who will help you get up. It’s not always enough to be forgiven by someone, as in most cases you have to forgive yourself first. That no matter how many pieces your heart is broken into, the world doesn’t stop to fix it. Maybe God wants us to meet all the wrong people first before meeting the right one, so when we finally meet the right one, we are grateful for that gift. When the door of happiness closes, another door opens, but often we look so long at the closed one we don’t see what is open for us. The best kind of a friend is the kind in which you can sit on a porch or go for a walk without saying a word, and when you leave, it feels like it was the best conversation you’ve ever had. It’s true we don’t know what we have until we find it, but it’s also true that we don’t know what we’ve been missing until it arrives. It only takes a minute to offend someone, an hour to like someone, a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don’t look for appearances, they can be deceiving; don’t go for wealth, as this can fade too. Find someone who makes you smile, because it only takes a smile to make a day better. Find what makes your heart smile. There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you wish you can take them out of your dream and hug them for real. Dream what you want, go wherever you want to go, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do. The happiest people don’t necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the best out of everything that comes their way. The best future is based on the forgotten past. You can’t prevail in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.”
