CREATE YOUR OWN! - or - GET PAID TO TAKE SURVEYS!

I borrowed this from a friend who sent it to me. I think it's appropriate.

At least 5 people in this world love you so much they would die for you. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way. The only reason anyone would ever hate you is because they want to be just like you. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep. You mean the world to someone. If not for you, someone may not be living. You are special and unique. Someone that you don't even know exists loves you. When you make the biggest mistake ever, something good comes from it. When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look: you most likely turned your back on the world. When you think you have no chance of getting what you want, you probably won't get it, but if you believe in yourself, probably, sooner or later, you will get it. Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the rude remarks. Always tell someone how you feel about them; you will feel much better when they know. If you have a great friend, take the time to let them know that they are great. A Minute They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them. Take the time... to live and love.
