Magdalena

Some people come into our lives ...
and quickly go.
Some people stay for awhile,
Leave footprints on our hearts,
...and we are never, ever the same.
*flavia*



This is true of my beloved friend and mentor Magdalena, many know this gem and all that do know just what a wonderful lady she is.  I know that I do.


I met her in June of 2003 when I signed up to take an HTML class from a wonderful group. She was assigned as my teacher and I was sure that she would regret the attempt to teach me anything.


Since that time, she has become more than a friend to me, I adore and respect this kind creature. She has a heart as big as all outdoors and has taught me to take a deep breath and enjoy every part of life.


From my dear friend I have learned so many things, too many to put here on this page but please allow me to share this one dear writing with you, one she once shared with me.


~MOMENTS IN LIFE~

There are moments in life when you miss someone
so much that you just want to pick them from
your dreams and hug them for real!

When the door of happiness closes, another opens;
but often times we look so long at the
closed door that we don't see the one,
which has been opened for us.

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.

Dream what you want to dream;
go where you want to go;
be what you want to be,
because you have only one life
and one chance to do all the things
you want to do.

May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,
enough trials to make you strong,
enough sorrow to keep you human and
enough hope to make you happy.

The happiest of people don't necessarily
have the best of everything;
they just make the most of
everything that comes along their way.

The brightest future will always
be based on a forgotten past;
you can't go forward in life until
you let go of your past failures and heartaches.



When you were born, you were crying
and everyone around you was smiling.
Live your life so at the end,
you're the one who is smiling and everyone
around you is crying.


From this I have taken a great deal of thought, I have learned so much from my dear friend. I hope that you, gentle reader, have gained some insight to my beautiful and "forever friend" ~ Magdalena, my Angel friend Malena.
