Not everyday is a good day, live
                           anyway.
                           Not all those you love will love you back,
                           love anyway.
                           Not everyone will tell you the truth,
                           be honest anyway.
                           Not all deals are fair, play fair
                           anyway.
                           Not all lovers will be trustworthy and true
                           to you, be true to them
                           anyway.

It is always important to know when something has reached
its end. Closing circles, shutting doors, finishing chapters, it doesn't matter what we call it;  what matters is to leave in the
past those moments in life that are over and a simple truth?
realize we'll never have today again.

In this life a steady love and a place to call home are more
precious than all earthly possessions and wealth in the world
and we have to realize a happy soul is the best shield for a
cruel world while never loving  Nostalgia more than you
love today.

Never apologize for having a heart as big as the ocean to the
people who would rather stay puddles and accept the fact
that some people didn't intend to let you down. Their best is
just less than you expected while knowing that far too many
people are just looking for the right person, instead of trying
to be the right person.
