A Smile
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.
No one is so rich or mighty
that they can get along without it,
and no one is so poor
but that they 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 no one needs a smile so much
as they who have no more to give.
