We cannot hold a torch to light another's path without brightening our own.

The best way to cheer yourself up is to try to cheer somebody else up.

I love when you text me first. It reminds me that sometimes you really do think about me

When a girl says "no", a guy hears it as "try again tomorrow."

God puts people in your life for a reason, and removes them from your life for a better reason.

Dear guys. if you like a girl, don't make her start the conversation, cause then she worries she's being annoying. sincerely, every girl

Letting go isn't about giving up. It's about accepting the fact that there are things in life that just can't be.

The smallest good deed is better than the grandest good intention.

When u have a crush on someone, u notice every little thing and when they do something for u, u feel touched no matter how small!

If you spend too much time holding onto someone who treats u like an option, you'll miss out on finding the one who will put u as a priority

If someone wants to be a part of your life, they will be there. Don't bother saving a spot for someone who won't make an effort to stay.

Be careful who you give your heart to. Because when you give your heart to someone, you also give the person the power to hurt you.

Falling in love is easy. Staying in love is a challenge. Letting go is the hardest part and moving on is suicide.


Go for someone who is not only proud to have you, but will also take every risk and chance just to be with you.

No one can change a person, but someone can be a person's reason to change

It's Ironic how the person who made you the happiest before, is the reason you're so depressed.

Seeing guys play with little kids Is probably one of the most attractive things ever.

There is no exercise better for the heart than reaching down and lifting people up.

The smallest good deed is better than the grandest good intention.

If a girl ever steals your man, there's no better revenge than letting her keep him. REAL MEN can't be stolen.

Change your thoughts and you change your world.

You cannot expect to achieve new goals or move beyond your present circumstances unless you change.

Failure is not fatal, but failure to change might be.

He did not miss your call, he did not forget to text back, he is not too busy; he's just not interested.

A guy who truely loves his girl doesn't need to unbutton her shirt to get a better view of her heart.

When someone lies to u, its because they don't respect u enough to be honest, and they think u are too stupid to know the difference.

When a woman tells you about her problems, that doesn't mean she's complaining. It just means she trusts you.

Those late night text messages when you just confess everything.

When a girl asks a guy to listen to a song, it's because the lyrics are all the words she's afraid to say

Never expect. Never assume. Never ask. And never demand. Just let it be. If it's meant to be, it will happen.

"It's impossible." said pride. "It's risky." said experience. "It's pointless." said reason. "Give it a try." whispered the heart.

If two past lovers can remain friends, it's either they were never in love, or they still are.

When someone new comes along, you have to forget about your past and focus on your your future, Never let your past ruin something special

Loving a man is like loving a child, if you dont correct them when they upset you....they will never learn how to treat you with respect.

You can't be good enough for everybody, but you'll always be the best for the one who deserves you the most.

Don't settle for something that you don't really want. Being "safe" is not a reason for you to wake up everyday feeling miserable.

He's funny. He's adorable. He's sweet, loving. He's awesome. He's perfect. I didn't say a name but he popped into your head, didn't he?

If you're in love with two people, pick the second. Because, if u really loved the first, u wouldn't have fallen for the second.

When you truly care for someone, their mistakes never change your feelings because it's the mind that gets angry but the heart still cares.

To improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often.

The key to change is to let go of fear.

Be the change you want to see in the world. Be the change you want to be in your relationships.

We don't see things as they are, we see them as we are.

Experience is simply the name we give our mistakes.

Its so funny how the guy who made you cry knows exactly what to say to make you smile and fall back into love with him.

Sometimes it's easier to pretend you don't care, than to admit it's killing you.

The only 3 things a guy should wanna change about his girl is her last name, her address and her viewpoint on men.


We met, we talked, we liked, we texted, we dated, we committed, I loved, you cheated, we're done, you're deleted.

Missing someone so bad that even looking at their photos makes you feel better.

Don't make a girl fall for you if you have no intention of catching her.

If you ignore me, I will ignore you. If you don’t start the conversation, we won’t talk. If you don’t put in the effort, why should I?

Girls have friends that are guys, because there's less drama.

Never ignore a person who loves and cares for you because one day you may realize you've lost the moon while counting the stars.

It's not about how many times you tell someone that you love them, its about how many times you prove that you do

A woman has the last word in any argument. Anything a man says after that is the beginning of a new argument.

Don't expect to find the right person if you aren't willing to let the wrong one go.

The cruelest thing you can do to a person is pretend they mean more to you than they actually do.

If you lose my trust, you're not getting it back unless you work for it. Even then, it probably won't be the same.

There are two rules when in a relationship. 1 : The woman is always right. 2. When in doubt refer to rule # 1.

Watching people leave is hard. But it's harder remembering that time when they promised they wouldn't.

Realize that it's gonna be easier to walk away & hurt for a while than to hold on to something that ain't ever gonna happen.


You get into the BIGGEST fights with the people u care about the most, because those are the relationships that u are willing to fight for.

That terrifying moment when you realize you're starting to get attached to someone.


REAL men stay faithful... they don't have time to look for other women because they're too busy looking for new ways to love their own.

Remember ladies, you didn’t leave him. He let you go. If you meant anything to him he would’ve kept fighting for you.

Smart Man + Smart Woman = Romance . Smart Man + Dumb Woman = Affair . Dumb Man + Smart Woman = Marriage . Dumb Man + Dumb Woman = Pregnancy


Check out the prizes in the new McDonald's Monopoly game! I'd love to win #2!!! -->

Everyone needs that bad relationship in their life, just to know how it feels to have a good one the next time around.

If you're single, focus on being a better you instead of looking for someone better than your ex. A better you will attract a better next.

I still get butterflies even though I've seen you a hundred times...


The way I feel when a waiter brings my food is probably similar to the excitement of a dude on Maury who just got told he's not the father.

Sometimes the guy you really need is the one you didn't think you wanted and the guy you want is not the one you need.

If he loves you, he'll care for you, stay up with you, kiss you passionately, make you happy, not break your heart, and respect you.

A true relationship is when you can tell each other anything and everything. No secrets and no lies.

When a man says he doesn't know what he wants, run... what he really means is he doesn't want you but you're better than nothing

Some girls don't realize what they're worth. Some guys don't realize what they have. Then she leaves after realizing, then he realizes.

Nothing expresses more from a man to a woman than a forehead kiss.

Never say goodbye when you still want to try. Never give up when you can still take it. Never say you don't love him when you can't let go.

We all have that one guy best friend that we lose because he gets a girlfriend.

First dates = awkward. First kisses = heavenly. First love = irreplaceable. First heartbreaks = unforgettable.

Saying "Let's just be friends" is like saying "Let's ignore each other and not talk anymore."

Silence is a girl's loudest cry. You can always tell she's really hurt when she starts ignoring you.

repost

Somewhere in Milaor, Camarines Sur, there lived a fourth grader boy who would follow this route to school everyday: He has to cross the rugged plains and cross the dangerous highway where vehicles are recklessly driving to and from.
Once past this highway, the boy would take a short cut, passing by the Church every morning just to say Hi to God, and faithfully say his, "Magandang umaga po" in Bicol dialect. He was faithfully being watched by a Priest who was happy to find innocence so uplifting in the morning,
"Kamusta, Andoy? Papasok ka na?"
"Opo padre ... "he would flash his innocent grin, the priest would be touched. He was so concerned that one day he talked to Andoy.
"From school...", he advised "Do not cross the highway, you can pass through the Church and I can accompany you to the other side of the road...that way I can see that you are home safe...."
"Thank you father ... "
"Why don't you go home ... why do you stay in this church right after school?"
"I just want to say 'Hi' to my friend, God," and the priest would leave the boy to spend time beside the altar, talking to himself, but the priest was hiding behind the altar to listen to what this boy has to say to his heavenly FATHER.
"You know my math exam was pretty bad today, but I did not cheat although my seatmate is bullying me for notes... I ate one cracker and drank my water, Itay had a bad season and all I can eat is this cracker.
Thank you for this! I saw a poor kitten who was hungry and I know how he feels so I gave my last cracker to him ... funny but I am not that hungry.
Look, this is my last pair of slippers ...I may have to walk barefoot next week, you see this is about to be broken... but it is okay....at least I am still going to school.... Some say we will have a hard season this month, some of my classmates have already stopped going to school .... please help them get to school again, please God?
....Oh, you know, Inay hit me again, it is painful, but I know this pain will pass away, at least I still have a mother.... God, you want to see my bruises? I know you can heal them.... Here... here and .... oh ...blood ....I guess you knew about this one huh? Please don't be mad at Inay, she is just tired and she worries for the food in our table and my schooling that is why she hits us....Oh, I think I am in love ... there's this pretty girl in my class, her name is Anita ... do you think she will like me? Anyway, at least I know you will always like me, I don't have to be anybody just to please you, you are my very best friend! Hey your birthday is two days from now!!! Aren't you excited? I am! Wait till you see, I have a gift for you . but it is a surprise! I hope you will like it! Oooops, I have to go ..." then he stood up and calls out, "Padre, padre, I am finished talking to my friend ....
youcan accompany me to the other side of the road now"
This routine happens everyday. Andoy never fails. Father Agaton shares this every Sunday to the people in his church because he has not seen a very pure faith and trust in God, a very positive look at negative situations.
One Christmas day, Father Agaton was sick so he could not make it in the Church, he was sent to the hospital. The Church was left to 4 manangs who would chant the rosary in 1000 miles per hour, would not smile and would always find fault in what you do, they were also very well versed in cursing if you irritate them! They were kneeling, saying their kilometric rosary when Andoy, coming from his Christmas party,playfully dashed in.
"Hello God! I ......"
"P----!! (a curse) bata ka!! Alam mo nang may nagdadasal!! Alis!!"

Poor Andoy was so terrified, "Where's Father Agaton? He is supposed to help me cross the street ... and to be able to cross the street I will have to pass by the back door of this church .not only that, I have to greet Jesus. It is His birthday, I have a gift right here....

" Just as he was about to get the gift out of his shirt, the manang pulled his shirt and threw him out of the church. "Susmaryosep!!! (does the sign of the cross fervently) Alis kang bata ka, kung hindi matatamaan ka!!!
So the boy had no choice but to cross the dangerous side of the road in front of the church. He crossed. A fast moving bus came in.
There was a blind curve. The boy was protecting his gift inside his shirt, so he was not looking. There was so little time. Andoy died on the spot. A lot of people crowded the poor boy, the body of a lifeless young boy ...
Suddenly, out of nowhere a tall man in a pure white shirt and pants, a face so mild and gentle, but with eyes full of tears... He came and carried the boy in His arms. He was crying. Curious bystanders nudged the man in white, and asked,
"Excuse me sir, are you related to this child?
Do you know this child?"
The man in white, His face mourning and in agony, looked up and answered,
"He was my best friend . " was all he said. He took the badly wrapped gift in the bloody chest of the lifeless boy, and placed it near His heart.
He stood up and carried the boy away and they both disappeared in sight.
The crowd was curious ...
On Christmas Eve, Father Agaton learned of the shocking news. He visited the house, and wanted to verify about the man in white. He consulted the parents of Andoy.
"How did you know that your son died?"
"A man in white brought him here." sobbed the mother. "What did he say?"
The father answered, "He did not say anything. He was mourning. We do not know him and yet he was very lonely about our son's death, as if he knew our son very well. But there was something peaceful and unexplainable about him.
He gave me my son, and then he smiled peacefully. He brushed my son's hair away from his face and kissed him on his forehead, then he whispered something..."
"What did he say?"
"He said to my boy..." the father began, "Thank you for the gift .... I will see you soon ... you will be with me..." and the father of the boy continued, "and you know for a while, it felt so
wonderful ... I cried, but I do not know why....all I know is I cried tears of joy .... I could not explain it, Father, but when that man left, something peaceful came over me, I felt a deep sense
of love inside ... I could not explain the joy in my heart, I knew my boy is in heaven now but...tell me, Father, who is this man that my son talks to everyday in your church, you should know because you are always there ... except at the time of his death ......"Father Agaton suddenly felt the tears welling in his eyes, with
trembling knees, he murmurred, " ... He was talking to no one ......
but .. GOD...."

I love you. You don’t have to love me back, but I’m gonna give you my heart anyways.

A life without love, is like a year without summer.


Love means looking into her eyes and knowing what she's saying without words.

I love you not because of who you are, but because of who I am when I am with you.

You can't love someone if you don't love yourself.

The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.

A kiss can be a comma, a question mark or an exclamation point. That's basic grammar that every woman ought to know.

Kiss me and you will see stars; love me and I will give them to you.

What lies behind us, and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.



Love is of all passions the strongest, for it attacks simultaneously the head, the heart and the senses.

If I had to choose between breathing and loving you I would use my last breath to tell you I love you.

Never ask why I love you, just accept that I do, and that I will for the rest of my life.

I loved you once, I love you still, I always have, I always will...

Within you, I lost myself. Without you, I found myself wanting to be lost again.

Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into a friend.

I wish I could read minds so I can see how he really feels about me.

Life truly is a boomerang. What you give, you get.

You had me at hello, lost me at goodbye. And everything in between I guess, was just a lie.

Be a rainbow in someone else's cloud.

Act as if what you do makes a difference. It does.

Love is saying "I feel differently," instead of "You're wrong."

A goal, a love and a dream give you total control over your body and your life.

Love does not consist in gazing at each other, but in looking together in the same direction.


Find the person who will love you because of your differences and not in spite of them and you have found a lover for life.

Let your heart guide you. It whispers, so listen closely.

Sometimes someone says something really small, and it just fits right into this empty place in your heart.

Love is like the wind you can see it but you can't feel it.

The more I spend time with you, the more I realize I am doing the one thing I told myself I would never do again... Fall in love.

If you love someone put their name in a circle not a heart because hearts can break but circles go on forever.

The best way to love is to love like you have never been hurt.

Main rules in relationships: 1) Don't lie 2) Don't cheat 3) Don't make promises you can't keep.

Absence sharpens love, presence strengthens it.

You are the sun in my day, the wind in my sky, the waves in my ocean and the beat in my heart... I love you!


Our truest life is when we are in dreams while awake.

It is hard to fail, but it is worse never to have tried to succeed.

If you do not hope, you will not find what is beyond your hopes.

Soul-mates are people who bring out the best in you. They are not perfect but are always perfect for you.

True love cannot be found where it truly does not exist. Nor can it be hidden where it truly does.

Love is just a word, a label, but real love is unexplainable.

Sometimes you forgive people simply because you still want them in your life.

Being single does not mean no one wants you. It just means that God is busy writing your love story.

2 hearts, 1 souls, 1 beat.

I have felt it and lived it and now it leaves me here, love is the ultimate pain and joy, without it you die with it you perish.

I would rather have eyes that cannot see; ears that cannot hear; lips that cannot speak, than a heart that cannot love.

Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.


Where we love is home, home that our feet may leave, but not our hearts.

Once in awhile, right in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairy tale.

Before I met you, I didn't know what it was like to look at someone and smile for no reason at all.


Your voice makes me tremble inside and your smile is an invitation for my imagination to go wild.

If I tell you I love you, can I keep you forever?

I sometimes think of you when you're away and smile away to myself. People think I'm crazy. I'm just crazy over you.

Love is missing someone whenever you're apart, but somehow feeling warm inside because you're close in heart.

Don't fall in love with someone you can live with, fall in love with someone you can't live without.

How do you know he loves you? He'll let you look through his phone.


Anyone can be passionate, but it takes real lovers to be silly.


Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.

You don't love someone for their looks, or their clothes, or for their fancy car, but because they sing a song only you can hear.

Admit it, you can't stay mad for too long at someone who makes you smile.


Don't call a girl "a flirt" when she's just being nice. Don't call a girl "obsessed" when she's just in love.



When we're in love, we tend not to see the bad side of someone. Love is not blind, it sees, but it doesn't mind.

There are 3 reasons why I love you: 1.) ..... 2.) ..... 3.) ...... I can't even find the reasons why, I just do

I'd rather look back at my past and say, "I can't believe I did that!" instead of saying "I wish I did that."

I instantly smile when I see a text from u, I don't care what's in it. It's amazing to know I crossed your mind even just for a second.

What good is a heart if you’re not gonna use it? What good is a love if you’re too scared to choose it?

God takes away what’s dearest to our hearts to remind us of what we take for granted.

I don’t care about your past. All I wanna know is if there’s a place for me in your future.

In life and love, there comes a time to let go and move on.

Keep your head high, and keep smiling. Because life's a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.

I'm a girl. I don't smoke, drink, or party every weekend. I don't sleep around or start drama to get attention. Yes, we still do exist.

It sucks when you realize the only person who can make you feel better is also the reason why you always cry.

Life is like a roller coaster. It has its ups and downs. But it's your choice whether to scream or enjoy the ride.


Families are about love overcoming emotional torture.

Parents can only give good advice or put them on the right paths, but the final forming of a person's character lies in their own hands.

Love rule: Don’t waste your tears on someone who won’t be there to wipe them away.

It’s not the break up that truly hurts, it’s the heartache you feel every time you hear their name, see, or remember them.

We don't need to rush. If something bound to happen, it will happen. In the right time, with the right person and for the best reason.


The sweetest words ever. Boy to his girl: "The next girl I'll ever love on this earth is our DAUGHTER."

I'm good enough to forgive you, but not stupid enough to trust you again.

How I treat you all depends on how you treat me.


Silence is a girl's loudest cry & sometimes we choose to love in silence so we find no rejections.


She loves him more than he would ever know. He loves her more than he would ever show.

If someone sticks with u during the good times but also stays with u during the hard times, she/ he is the one that really deserves u.

Good times become good memories and bad times become good lessons.

You CAN'T be good enough for everybody, but you will always be the BEST for the one who deserves you!

You can never make the same mistake twice, the second time you make it, its no longer a mistake, its a CHOICE.

God would not give you the dream in your heart if He didn't give you the TALENT & ABILITIES to make it come true.


Don't look at a date as a potential relationship, you'll enjoy it more if you see it as a potential good time!

Don't be so quick to judge, next time someone offers you a date, take it and see how it goes. Give them a fair chance!

If you find a girl who's willing to go through hell just to keep your relationship going, you really shouldn't take her for granted.

I'm a strong girl who keeps her stuff in line. Even when I have tears in my face, I always manage to say, "I'm fine."

I want to refresh my mind. Delete all my problems, undo all my mistakes and saves all the happy moments.

I’m not perfect & don’t live to be. But, before u start pointing fingers, make sure ur hands are clean.

Love comes to those who wait, love WILL find you

I wish you were here. But you're not, you're there. And there doesn't know how lucky it is.

Components of Great Relationships

Lets face it; we all have troubles when it comes to any relationship. Good relationships can be hard to come by. But, that should never be a reason why you don’t cater to them. I personally know that when dealing with any relationship you have to cater to it.

Having any type of friendship means you have to treat like it’s your teeth, well not exactly, but a relationship requires upkeep. You always have to keep in mind that nothing is perfect. Yes there are going to be good, bad, and sad times, but this is all apart of building a relationship with anyone. In order to get where you are going there has to be a couple of bumps in the road. The good thing about the bumps in the road is that you learn life long lessons, which is why you should never look at the bad or sad times as negative. Look at them as a time of learning and experience for your future.

Another great thing about these experiences is that you never know whom you can help that had the same problem as you. I can remember like it was yesterday when I lost my best friend. I cant say that it was a day where I was proud, but it was apart of getting older. Losing my best buddy was hard, she was like my only friend. I had known here since I was in the first grade and by the time I got to college we lost each other. It was really dumb and if I could change the way I did things, I would. I must say that if didn’t lose her, some things that have happen in my life wouldn’t have happened that way because I wouldn’t have been faced with those situations. Although it hurt to lose her, I still continued to have friends, but I could never trust the same.

Trust is key when building any relationship. Without trust there is nothing. So whenever building a relationship with anyone, make sure you can trust him or her. If you ever feel yourself questioning what someone is telling you, that means you have no trust for him or her. I can’t stress how important trust is. Another key thing in any type of relationship is communication. You must learn to have a clear communication with people, that’s the only way to have a healthy relationship.

Over time I have learned the ups and downs to a healthy loving relationship; you have to go through a lot to get be great. So sit back, enjoy the ride, remember that nothing is perfect. Never ever forget to live, love, and laugh; those are the things I live by.

“The first duty of love is to listen.”

Sometimes it seems as if everyone wants to be heard, but nobody wants to listen. Harness all of the mental power you have, take a deep breath, and lend someone your ears. Whether in love, in family, or in friendship, the best conversation sometimes is the one where you do all of the listening.

It’s a difficult task, but sometimes instead of hearing what people say, listen to them. Along side this, pay attention to their voice, their mannerisms, and their tone; take in the full effect of their message. You can find out a lot about someone by just listening to their story or hearing their perception of the situation. Not only will you get further with them, but you may also see things in a new light.

Don’t be so quick to speak when you can sit back and listen, the results may surprise you. Most importantly, if you love someone or care about them enough, sometimes the best thing you can be is a quiet soul with two great listening ears.

the way you are

Love isn’t about finding the “perfect” person. No one is perfect in this world, but there are people who are perfect for you, and it’s all about trying to find someone who can love you with all of your imperfections.

But sometimes it’s not enough just to tolerate someone’s weird quirks. You really, truly have to embrace them and accept the whole package. My boyfriend knows that I will get irrationally angry when I’m super hungry. Instead of letting it bother him when I rage at him for no reason other than because I’m starving, he merely pops open his backpack and casually slides me a granola bar. It is the little things like this that make me more patient and understanding when he’s running late for the umpteenth time, which threatens my hyper punctual nature.

So, remember there is no such thing as a perfect man or woman. Everyone comes with their own little oddities that will drive you nuts sometimes, but it’s all about learning to accept them and loving the person as a complete picture. Because no beautiful work of art is completely flawless—and neither is love.

hand held

Ever since I started dating—way back in middle school—one of my favorite reasons to have a boyfriend has always been hand holding. No matter how old I get, or jaded and cynical, I will always love to hold hands. There is something so sweet and pure about holding the hand of the person you love. I adore that my hand fits perfectly with my boyfriend’s. It’s almost as if we were meant to hold hands.

That’s not to say that I don’t love kissing—I mean, who doesn’t? But the simple fact of interlocking fingers with someone else is almost magical. There’s a safety and comfort there that you cannot get anywhere else. It’s the simple act of someone reaching out for your hand that makes you feel loved and cared for. You could be 16 or 60 and hand holding will always mean, “I’m here for you.”

So, if you’ve forgotten how great a simple hand holding can be with your sweetie, reach out today and grab their hand. You could be browsing the grocery store aisles or sitting in a movie theater, but let them know you care with an effortless act of affection.

makes me think....

This is beautiful!

She jumped up as soon as she saw the surgeon come out of the operating room. She said: 'How is my little boy? Is he going to be all right? When can I see him?'

The surgeon said, 'I'm sorry. We did all we could, but your boy didn't make it.'

Sally said, 'Why do little children get cancer? Doesn't God care any more? Where were you, God, when my son needed you?'

The surgeon asked, 'Would you like some time alone with your son? One of the nurses will be out in a few minutes, before he's transported to the university.'

Sally asked the nurse to stay with her while she said good bye to son. She ran her fingers lovingly through his thick red curly hair. 'Would you like a lock of his hair?' the nurse asked. Sally nodded yes. The nurse cut a lock of the boy's hair, put it in a plastic bag and handed it to Sally.

The mother said, 'It was Jimmy's idea to donate his body to the University for Study. He said it might help somebody else. 'I said no at first, but Jimmy said, 'Mom, I won't be using it after I die.. Maybe it will help some other little boy spend one more day with his Mom.' She went on, 'My Jimmy had a heart of gold. Always thinking of someone else. Always wanting to help others if he could.'

Sally walked out of Children's Mercy Hospital for the last time, after spending most of the last six months there. She put the bag with Jimmy's belongings on the seat beside her in the car.

The drive home was difficult. It was even harder to enter the empty house. She carried Jimmy's belongings, and the plastic bag with the lock of his hair to her son's room.

She started placing the model cars and other personal things back in his room exactly where he had always kept them She lay down across his bed and, hugging his pillow, cried herself to sleep.


It was around midnight when Sally awoke. Lying beside her on the bed was a folded letter. The letter said:


'Dear Mom,


I know you're going to miss me; but don't think that I will ever forget you, or stop loving you, just 'cause I'm not around to say 'I Love You'. I will always love you, Mom, even more with each day.... Someday we will see each other again. Until then, if you want to adopt a little boy so you won't be so lonely, that's okay with me. He can have my room and old stuff to play with. But, if you decide to get a girl instead, she probably wouldn't like the same things us boys do. You'll have to buy her dolls and stuff girls like, you know.


Don't be sad thinking about me. This really is a neat place. Grandma and Grandpa met me as soon as I got here and showed me around some, but it will take a long time to see everything. The angels are so cool. I love to watch them fly. And, you know what? Jesus doesn't look like any of his pictures. Yet, when I saw Him, I knew it was Him. Jesus himself took me to see GOD! And guess what, Mom? I got to sit on God's knee and talk to Him, like I was somebody important. That's when I told Him that I wanted to write you a letter, to tell you good bye and everything. But I already knew that wasn't allowed. Well, you know what Mom? God handed me some paper and His own personal pen to write you this letter I think Gabriel is the name of the angel who is going to drop this letter off to you. God said for me to give you the answer to one of the questions you asked Him 'where was He when I needed him?' 'God said He was in the same place wi th me, as when His son Jesus was on the cross. He was right there, as He always is with all His children.

Oh, by the way, Mom, no one else can see what I've written except you. To everyone else this is just a blank piece of paper. Isn't that cool? I have to give God His pen back now He needs it to write some more names in the Book of Life. Tonight I get to sit at the table with Jesus for supper. I'm sure the food will be great.

Oh, I almost forgot to tell you. I don't hurt anymore the cancer is all gone.. I'm glad because I couldn't stand that pain anymore and God couldn't stand to see me hurt so much, either. That's when He sent The Angel of Mercy to come get me. The Angel said I was a Special Delivery! How about that?
