Sap Runs

A friend forwarded this silly email to me today. I dislike sentimentality when it’s cheap and I’d like to believe – and con you into believing, too – that I’m not overly sappy. That I don’t cry easily. That I don’t love flowers. That my heart is stone, not glass. But you and I are both smarter than that.


So, here it is. I like it - sappy or not:


As we grow up, we learn that even the one person who wasn’t supposed to ever let you down probably will.


You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it’s harder every time.


You’ll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken.


You’ll fight with your best friend. You’ll blame a new love for things an old one did.


You’ll cry because time is passing too fast, and you’ll eventually lose someone you love.


So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you’ve never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you’ll never get back.


Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.

Though I do not break hearts because I know all too well how much it hurts & wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.....
