A few cool quotes Grandma forwarded to me. This I’d say “lost . . . and found:”

It’s true that we don’t know what we’ve got until we lose it,
But it’s also true that we don’t know
What we’ve been missing until it arrives.

I have felt both ways about my wife, and now I’m looking forward to discovering what else I have been missing.

I recall the scene from “Dances With Wolves” where the one guy tells Dunbar that he was good friends with Stands With a Fist’s deceased husband, and he at first resented Dunbar, but now he thinks that maybe his friend “left” because he knew Dunbar would come along.

Then, “If you want to be happy for the rest of your life . . .”

Don’t go for looks; they can deceive.
Don’t go for wealth; even that fades away.
Go for someone who makes you smile
Because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright.
Find the one that makes your heart smile.

And then, ask a optimist:

The happiest of people
Don’t necessarily have the best of everything;
They just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

There have been times when I was maybe more bi-polar, and people would ask, “why are you so happy all the time?” And I would answer “Because it beats being sad!”
