BE HAPPY...........TRY IT AT LEAST

ESPECIALLY FOR MY FAVORITE ROMANIAN SINGER
We convince ourselves that life will be better after finishing a career, getting a job, after marrying, after having a baby, and then after having another one.
Later, we feel frustrated because our children are not old enough, and we think we will be happier when they grow and they stop being young, then we get exasperated because they are adolescent, difficult to deal with. We think: we will be happier when they leave this stage.
Afterwards, we decide that our life will be complete when to our husband or wife is more successful, when we have a better car, when we can afford going on holidays, when we get a promotion at work, when we are retired............
The truth is that THERE IS NO BETTER MOMENT TO BE HAPPY THAT RIGHT NOW.
If it is not now, when? Life will be always full of” laters”, of challenges.
It is better to admit it and to decide to be happy anyway.
There is no "later", nor a way for the happiness, the happiness is the way and is NOW.
HOARD EVERY MOMENT YOU LIVE, and hoard it more because you shared it with somebody special; so special that you take him/her in your heart and remember that TIME DOESN'T WAIT FOR ANYBODY.
So, stop waiting for until you finish the University, until you fall in love, until you find a job, until you marry, until you have children, until they leave home, until you divorce, until you lose those ten kilos, until Friday night or Sunday morning; until spring, summer, autumn or winter, or until you die, to decide that there is no better moment than exactly THIS ONE TO BE HAPPY. HAPPINESS IS A WAY, NOT A DESTINY.
LOVE AS IF YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN HURT, AND DANCE ............... AS IF NOBODY WAS SEEING YOU.

WHEN DID WE BEGIN TO BE FRIENDS?

When did we begin to be friends? … I don’t really know .
Don't you think it is funny that with your couple you always want to remember the day and the exact moment in which you met? When did you begin your relation, at what time, where? … With your couple you celebrate anniversaries… and with friends it is not necessary, it does not matter the exact moment, the hour, the day in which you met, it just matters that through those years, months and days you are constructing unforgettable moments.
With the present, you construct anecdotes of yesterday; you remember such-and-such date because of important events spent with them.
I was thinking about all this, and well, it does not matter if I met you ten, twenty, five years or a few months ago… the important thing is that at some moment in time the miracle of the friendship happened, that through that same time the confidence, the respect, the tolerance, the affection have been constructed.
How many years it costs to construct them and how soon can they be lost! I do not send this to you in a special date, because as I have already said, it is not necessary; I am just sending it to you because yesterday, tomorrow, but mainly TODAY I consider you as my friend: a friend who I love a lot.
Today I am sending an enormous hug to you. I wish life ALWAYS smiles to you! REMEMBER THAT WHENEVER YOU SMILE A SADNESS DISESAPPEARS AND A HOPE IS ILLUMINATED.
Many people will enter and leave your life; but just true friends will leave marks in your heart! In order to manage yourself, use your head; in order to manage with other people....use your heart.
Great minds discuss the ideas; average minds discuss the events; small minds discuss to people. The one who loses money loses much; the one who loses a friend, loses much more; the one who loses the faith, loses everything. Pretty young people are accidents of the nature, but pretty old people are art works. Learn from others’ mistakes!!.
Perhaps you will not live enough to learn everything about yourself… The friends, you and I… You bring another friend…; and now we are three… We begin our group… Our circle of friends… And what is a circle like? … There is neither start nor end!
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery! ; The today is a gift that we call present. Show your friends how much you love them!!!!!!!!!
