A smile costs nothing, but gives
much. It enriches those who receive,
without making poorer those who give. It takes 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 good will 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.
