Care for u !
As I sat there in English class, I stared at the girl next to me. She was my so-called "best friend". I stared at her long, silky hair. I wished she were mine, but she didn't notice me like Attachment that. And I knew it. After class she walked up to me and asked me for the notes she had missed the day before, and I handed them to her. She said "thanks" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I wanted to tell her. I wanted her to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love her, but I'm just too shy. And I don't know why.
11th Grade
The phone rang. It was her on the other end. She was in tears, mumbling on and on about how her love had broke her heart. She asked me to come over because she didn't want to be alone, so I did. As I sat next to her on the sofa, I stared at her soft eyes, wishing she was mine. After 2 hours, a Drew Barrymore movie, and three bags of chips, she decided to go to sleep. She looked at me, said "thanks," and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love her, but I'm just too shy. And I don't know why.
12th Grade
The day before prom she walked to my locker. "My date is sick," she said. He's not going to go. Well, I didn't have a date and in 7th grade we made a promise that if neither of us had dates we would go together just as "best friends," so we did. Prom night after everything was over I was standing at her front door step. I stared at her. She smiled at me and stared at me with her crystal eyes. I want her to be mine, but she doesn't think of me like that, and I know it. Then she said, "I had the best time, thanks!" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love her, but I'm just too shy. And I don't know why...
Graduation Day
A day passed. A week passed. A month passed. Before I could blink, it was graduation day. I watched as her perfect body floated like an angel up on stage to get her diploma. I wanted her to be mine, but she didn't notice me like that, and I knew it. Before everyone went home, she came to me in her smock and hat, and she cried as I hugged her. Then, she lifted her head from my shoulder and said, "You're my best friend, thanks!" and gave me a kiss on the cheek. I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love her, but I'm just too shy. And I don't know why…
A Few Years Later
Now, I sit in the pews of the church. She is getting married, now. I watched her say, "I do" and drive off to her new life, married to another man. I wanted her to be mine but she didn't see me like that, and I knew it. But before she drove away, she came to me and said, "You came!" She said, "thanks!" and kissed me on the cheek. I want to tell her. I want her to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love her, but I'm just too shy. And I don't know why...
Funeral
yrs passed, and I looked down at the coffin of the girl who used to be my best friend. "At the service they read a diary entry she had wrote in her high school years. This is what it read: I stare at him wishing he were mine. But he doesn't notice me like that, and I know it. I want to tell him. I want him to know that I don't want to be just friends. I love him, but I'm just too shy, and I don't know why. I wish he would tell me he loved me…
i wish I did too…
i thought to myself, and I cried.

Top 7 steps to becoming a great leader
Be great follower.
Real leadership means leading yourself. "It's important that leader have the ability to focus and motivate themselves as they motivate others" says Larraine segilSet your heart on leading people to greatness, not on your own personal greatness.
Learn from every situation you are in, good or bad. Then you can repeat success and avoid the mistakes you have made.
Listen to your trusted advisors.
Leadership isn't always being right yourself. It is sorting out the opinions and choosing the right one.
Lead by example. People will do what you say only if you do first. Teddy Roosevelt was known for leading in battle.Take the hardest jobs and give the easier ones to your followers. They will know it - and respect it.
Stay focused on the future. The endgame is what you are playing for, even as you operate out of the present

Love, Friendship, & Good Advice
Love starts with a smile, grows with a kiss,
and ends with a tear.
Don't cry over anyone who won't cry over you.
If love isn't a game, why are there so many players?
Good friends are hard to find, harder to leave,
and impossible to forget.
You can only go as far as you push.
Actions speak louder than words.
The hardest thing to do is watch the one you love,
love somebody else.
Don't let the past hold you back;
you're missing the good stuff.
Life's short. If you don't look around
once in a while you might miss it.
A BEST FRIEND is like a four leaf clover,
HARD TO FIND and LUCKY TO HAVE.
Some people make the world
SPECIAL just by being in it.
BEST FRIENDS are the siblings
God forgot to give us.
When it hurts to look back,
and you're scared to look ahead,
you can look beside you and your
BEST FRIEND will be there.
TRUE FRIENDSHIP NEVER ENDS.
Friends are FOREVER.
Good friends are like stars.... You don't always see them,
but you know they are always there.
Don't frown. You never know who is
falling in love with your smile.
What do you do when the only person who can
make you stop crying is the person who made you cry?
Nobody is perfect until you fall in love with them.
Most people walk in and out of your life,
only friends leave footprints in your heart.
Everything is okay in the end.
If it's not okay, then it's not the ends
