Yes, it has a deep meaning. I appreciate your 'thought'. On the lighter note - When did we cry? or where we were required to cry and what has completed so that we should smile?

I did not not cry, in fact I smiled thinking that you have written something, which has a deep meaning. Wasn't I write?

Hmmm.... Simple words yet so meaningful.. In my perception it's like learning from your experience. The past what makes us now, stronger and wiser so don't cry over spilled milk. Better be thankful cause we have experienced it rather than not. Inspirational post. Ciao!

its not easy but yes, better than regretting everything. Smile and hope, and be thankful for the lesson you learned from the experience. Think that it is just a preparation for you something that is even greater than you imagine.

Yes, i somewhat agree with you, but sometimes crying is ok to express that you're affected. There are person who can still smile even in times of problem, they can still give smile and this is their weapon to overcome problems, This kind of person are lucky to have this kind of attitude and person who have this kind of friends are lucky too in the sense that their friends can lift them and give a brighter side in times of trouble.

wow...that's such a nice thought. Less than 10 words but it says it all. Whenever things go bad for me, I feel very disappointed. 'why does this keep happening to me always' is the thought that keeps coming to my mind. But your words makes me realise anything thats happens whether it brings happiness or it makes you sad, it is only to make you stronger. Like you mentioned before God would not burden you with something that you cannot bear. He will give you the strength too. Now I realise whenever I have lost out oppurtunities whether it is getting a job, a good percentage while studying, I have lost it because God has a purpose for me. I keep reminding myself lost oppurtunity was good but something much better than that is waiting at the corner. Thanks a lot dear. It will keep me smiling even through disappointments.

That's a great inspirational message. Thanks for that. You know what, I was a bit or somewhat really crazy this day. I felt really hopeless with my problem. I started to quit with it. But I know that wont be a great idea. Because, God is still there, helping us, right? I cried and cried with my problem then began to smile. I think, I cried to find relief. Just like what you've post, we dont really have to cry. Because God never give a problem that He knows we cant make it. I think that was my reason why I began to smile a bit despite of hard crying. And of course, like what you have said, smile because it happened, since new challenges and strengths is being introduce. Wow, I never I have written a lot. I just got quote to your post, and I really got struck with it. Thanks God I've seen and read it. And thanks, because you've post it. Take care always...

So true. You cannot truly experience joy without every having experienced sorrow, victory without defeat, sunshine without rain. Life's disappointments are a stepping stone and can help you build a stronger character.

I like your inspirational words. They do seem to work. The context in which I am taking your post today tells me that if you are in a special relationship where there was love and caring shared between people it may not last. However the fact that you had something special is important so don't ever forget it. Thanks for posting. Take care.

actually,bamakelly,i say these words to my kids,when they cry over something,mostly when our cousins have to go back after their vacationing,ranging 1-2months,during which time,my kids and cousins develop a special bond(many of my close relatives are in u.k,u.a.e etc)
