“That’s my son over there,” she said, pointing to a little boy in a red sweater who was gliding down the slide.

“He’s a fine looking boy” the man said. “That’s my daughter on the bike in the white dress.”

Then, looking at his watch, he called to his daughter. “What do you say we go, Melissa?”

Melissa pleaded, “Just five more minutes, Dad. Please? Just five more minutes.”

The man nodded and Melissa continued to ride her bike to her heart’s content. Minutes passed and the father stood and called again to his daughter. “Time to go now?”

Again Melissa pleaded, “Five more minutes, Dad. Just five more minutes.”

The man smiled and said, “OK.”

“My, you certainly are a patient father,” the woman responded.

The man smiled and then said, “Her older brother Tommy was killed by a drunk driver last year while he was riding his bike near here. I never spent much time with Tommy and now I’d give anything for just five more minutes with him. I’ve vowed not to make the same mistake with Melissa.

She thinks she has five more minutes to ride her bike. The truth is, I get Five more minutes to watch her play.”

Life is all about making priorities, what are your priorities?

Give someone you love five more minutes of your time today!

I made you seem perfect
But you did hurt me before
I never told anyone
About that time you broke my heart

But no matter what you did
I always did forgive
I still believe in your loving words
That took away all my pain and hurt

Three years, five months
We were engaged
Even if I was young
For the future we could wait

So many times we lost our place
But it’s hard to be together
When we’re miles away
So maybe it was fate

Many nights I cried
And got on my knees
Making sure God listened
That I needed you next to me

Today I still love you
More than I ever did
But I guess the love you had
For me took a scary twist

I guess you found another
That is near you
It hurts because you didn’t say Goodbye
But I remember..
The last words you said were..

I Love You

Drowning in a flood of tears,
But tears are my destiny.
My vision a blur as I fulfill,
And this is how I meant to be.

As you regarded suicide as sin,
I am not against you my heart is pure.
Fate is mocking with an evil,
Grin,  surrounded in a blackness so deep.

I walk, I see, but survive no more,
I am dead inside, in darkness I weep.
You know I love you like ever before,
Forgive me as in my grave I lay.

Free me of this pain and let me die,
I just can’t bare it any more.

If you fall it don’t matter,
There’s no one to care.

Watching freedom is painful,
For those locked away.

Seeing joy, love and happiness,
Another price that you pay.

Hide the pain,
Carry on ,
Routine is the key.

Don’t let on that you’re not,
What you’re pretending to be.

Whenever the lectures were boring,
I played games, used to draw pictures
on the last page of my notebook.

When I was angry with anyone and
wanted to flood my anger,

I used the last page of my notebook.

When I discovered I was in love with him,
I shared my thoughts with the
Last page of my notebook.

When I was really wrong,
And I wanted to confess it to someone,
I told about it to last page of my notebook.

When I wanted not to forget some points taught by my teacher
I discussed it with the last page of my notebook.

Still many things are there to be written
on the last page of my notebook.

So the man decided to help the butterfly. He took a pair of scissors and snipped off the remaining bit of the cocoon.

The butterfly then emerged easily. But it had a swollen body and small, shriveled wings.

The man continued to watch the butterfly because he expected that, at any moment, the wings would enlarge and expand to be able to support the body, which would contract in time.

Neither happened! In fact, the butterfly spent the rest of its life crawling around with a swollen body and shriveled wings. It never was able to fly.

What the man, in his kindness and haste, did not understand was that the restricting cocoon and the struggle required for the butterfly to get through the tiny opening were God’s way of forcing fluid from the body of the butterfly into its wings so that it would be ready for flight once it achieved its freedom from the cocoon.

Sometimes struggles are exactly what we need in our lives. If God allowed us to go through our lives without any obstacles, it would cripple us.

We would not be as strong as what we could have been. We could never fly!

Some people never understand. One a lady when having a conversation with her lover.

Lady: Why do you like me? Why do you love me?
Man: I can’t tell the reason but I really like you.
Lady: You can’t even tell me the reason. How can you say you like me? How can you say you love me?
Man: I really don’t know the reason but I can prove that I love you.
Lady: Proof? No! I want you to tell me the reason. My friend’s boyfriend can tell her why he loves her but not you!
Man: Okay, Okay! Hmmm, because you are beautiful, because your voice is sweet, because you are caring, because you are loving, because you are thoughtful, because of your smile, because of your every movement.

The lady felt very satisfied with the man’s answer. Unfortunately, A few days later the lady met with an accident and went in coma. The guy then placed a letter by her side. Here is the content of the letter:

Darling, because of your sweet voice I loved you..
Now can you talk?No!
Therefore I cannot love you….

Because of your care and concern I liked you…
Now that you cannot show them,
therefore I cannot love you..

Because of your smile because of your every movement I loved you..
Now can you smile?Now can you move?.. no!
therefore I cannot love you..

If love needs a reason, like now,
there is no reason for me to love you anymore.

Does LOVE need a reason?

NO, Therefore,
I still love you…

True love never dies for it is lust that fades away. Love bonds for a lifetime lust just pushes away.

Immature love says: “I love you because I need You.”
Mature love says: “I need you because I love you.”

He walked down his block and found a lot of stores. He passed a CD store and looked through the front door for a second as he walked. He stopped and went back to look into the store. He saw a young girl about his age and he knew it was love at first sight. He opened the door and walked in, not looking at anything else but her. He walked closer and closer until he was finally at the front desk where she sat.

She looked up and asked, “Can I help you?”

She smiled and he thought it was the most beautiful smile he has ever seen before and wanted to kiss her right there.

He said, “Uh… Yeah… Umm… I would like to buy a CD.”

He picked one out and gave her money for it.

“Would you like me to wrap it for you?” she asked, smiling her cute smile again.

He nodded and she went to the back.

She came back with the wrapped CD and gave it to him. He took it and walked out of the store. He went home and from then on, he went to that store everyday and bought a CD, and she wrapped it for him. He took the CD home and put it in his closet. He was still too shy to ask her out and he really wanted to but he couldn’t. His mother found out about this and told him to just ask her.

So the next day, he took all his courage and went to the store. He bought a CD like he did everyday and once again she went to the back of the store and came back with it wrapped. He took it and when she wasn’t looking, he left his phone number on the desk and ran out…

!!!RRRRRING!!!

The mother picked up the phone and said, “Hello?”

It was the girl!!! She asked for the boy and the mother started to cry and said, “You don’t know? He passed away yesterday…”

The line was quiet except for the cries of the boy’s mother. Later in the day. The mother went into the boy’s room because she wanted to remember him. She thought she would start by looking at his clothes. So she opened the closet. She was face to face with piles and piles and piles of unopened CDs. She was surprised to find all those CDs and she picked one up and sat down on the bed and she started to open one.

Inside, there was a CD and as she took it out of the wrapper, out fell a piece of paper. The mother picked it up and started to read it.

It said: Hi… I think U R really cute. Do u wanna go out with me? Love, Jacelyn

The mother opened another CD…

Again there was a piece of paper. It said: Hi… I think U R really cute. Do u wanna go out with me? Love, Jacelyn

Love is… when you’ve had a huge fight but then decide to put aside your egos, hold hands and say, “I Love You”

Daniel: I’m tired Jasmine. Do you want any drinks? I’ll buy you one. I’ll just go down the road.
Jasmine: Apple juice would be fine,thanks.
Daniel: Wait for me…

20 minutes later, a stranger approached Jasmine.

The doctor came out from the emergency room and handed out an apple juice and a letter to Jasmine.

Doctor : We found this in Daniel’s pocket.

Jasmine read the letter which says:

Jasmine, this past few days, I realized you are really a cute girl and I am falling for you. Your cherished smile, your everything when we played this game and before this game ends. I would like you to be my girlfriend for the rest of my life. I love you, Jasmine.

Jasmine crumples the paper & shouted..

Daniel! I don’t want you to die. I love you. Remember that night we saw a meteor? I mumbled something. I wished that we would be together forever and never end this game. Please don’t leave me, Daniel. I love you, you cannot do this to me.

Then the clock strikes twelve.

Daniel’s heart stop pumping
