52、言，“ 不是我愛你，而是在一起?！?所以懂得才是最美的相遇！只有彼此以誠相待，彼此尊重，相互包容，相互懂得，才能走的更遠。相遇是緣，相守是愛。緣是多么的妙不可言，而懂得又是多么的難能可貴。否則就會錯過一時，錯過一世！擇一人深愛，陪一人到老。一路相扶相持，一路心手相牽，一路笑對風雨。在平凡的世界，不求愛的轟轟烈烈；不求誓言多么美麗；唯愿簡單的相處，真心地付出，平淡地相守，才不負最美的人生；不負善良的自己。人海茫茫，不求人人都能刻骨銘心，但求對人對己問心無愧，無怨無悔足矣。大千世界，與萬千人中遇見，只是相識的開始，只有彼此真心付出，以心交心，以情換情，相知相惜，才能相伴美好的一生，一路同行。然而，
53、生活不僅是詩和遠方，更要面對現(xiàn)實。如果曾經(jīng)的擁有，不能天長地久，那么就要學會華麗地轉(zhuǎn)身，學會忘記。忘記該忘記的人，忘記該忘記的事兒，忘記苦樂年華的悲喜交集。人有悲歡離合，月有陰晴圓缺。對于離開的人，不必折磨自己脆弱的生命，虛度了美好的朝夕；不必讓心靈痛苦不堪，弄丟了快樂的自己。擦汗眼淚，告訴自己，日子還得繼續(xù)，誰都不是誰的唯一，相信最美的風景一直在路上。人生，就是一場修行。你路過我，我忘記你；你有情，他無意。誰都希望在正確的時間遇見對的人，然而事與愿違時，你越渴望的東西，也許越是無情無義地棄你而去。所以美好的愿望，就會像肥皂泡一樣破滅，只能在錯誤的時間遇到錯的人。歲月匆匆像一陣風，有多少故事留下感動。愿曾經(jīng)的相遇，無論是錦上添花，還是追悔莫及；無論是青澀年華的懵懂賞識，還是成長歲月無法躲避的經(jīng)歷愿曾經(jīng)的過往，依然如花芬芳四溢，永遠無悔歲月賜予的美好相遇。 其實，人生之路的每一段相遇，都是一筆財富，尤其親情、友情和愛情。在漫長的旅途上，他們都會豐富你的生命，使你的生命更充實，更真實；豐盈你的內(nèi)心，使你的內(nèi)心更慈悲，更善良。所以生活的美好，緣于一顆善良的心，愿我們都能善待自己和他人。一路走來，愿相親相愛的人，相濡以沫，同甘共苦，百年好合。愿有情有意的人，不離不棄，相惜相守，共度人生的每一個朝夕直到老得哪也去不了，依然是彼此手心里的寶，感恩一路有你！
