27、hat we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives. It takes an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

28、 content it has grown in yours. Do not rely on ones appearance; it can trick you. Do not rely on wealth; even that fades away.

39、ng much. Use a small luncheon-size plate and avoid the large ones that may encourage you to load up. You should be most comfortable eating an amount of food about the size of your fist.
