&quot;People are like tea bags, they don&#039;t realize their own strength until they&#039;re dropped in hot water &quot;<br /> &ldquo;People are often unreasonable and self-centered. Forgive them anyway.<br /> If you are kind, people may accuse you of ulterior motives. Be kind anyway.&quot;


If you were never in my life I would have created a man like you to be in my life
Perfect!Just as tall as you are … light skin green eyes pink lips and brown hair
Eyes as clear as the sky in the summer
I would have drawn you picture on paper
And curved your voice on paper
I would have let your hair be a garden full of beautiful flowers
Hands and fingers that swim in water and have no fear of drowning
I would have stayed up a whole night just to hear the music of your necklace smoothly touching your chest
If you were never my destiny … I would have lived to make you in my destiny
If you were never in my life I would have never had a life
