Someone special

I generally hate getting the email forwards and assorted junk, and have threatened to block many of my friends if they do not desist from flooding my inbox with shit I'll never read. One of our teachers has found a way around this stumbling block. He printed a message and put it in my mailbox. Mind you, he never sends me stuff, so it's ok. Once I managed to translate it from Spanish (not too difficult, as I understood about 95% sin diccionario), I thought I'd share part of it.

It takes a minute to meet someone special,
an hour to appreciate them,
a day to love them,
and a lifetime to forget them.
