A smile costs nothing,
but gives so much. It enriches those
who receive it, without making poorer those who give.
It takes but a
moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich
or mighty that he can get along without it, and none is so poor but that he
can be made rich by it.
A smile creates
happiness in the home, fosters goodwill in business, and is the countersign
of friendship.
It brings rest
to the weary, cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and it is nature's
best antidote for trouble.
Yet it cannot be
bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value
to anyone until it is given away.
Some people are
too tired to give you a smile.
Give them one of
yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.
