It cost nothing, but creates much
It enriches those who receive it
It happens in a flash,
None are so rich they can get along without it,
It creates happiness in the home,
It is rest to the weary,
Yet it cannot be bought, begged,
And if in the course of the day
For nobody needs a smile so much
~ Anonymous ~
without impoverishing those who give
and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever
none so poor but are richer for its benefits
fosters goodwill in a business,
and is the countersign of friends
daylight to the discouraged,
sunshine to the sad,
and nature's best antidote for trouble
borrowed or stolen,
for it is something that is no earthly good to anyone
until it is given away
some of your friends should be too tired
to give you a smile,
why don't you give them one of yours
as those who have none left to give!
