"A smile costs nothing but gives 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 and mighty that he can get along without it, and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. A smiles creates a happienss in a home, fosters goodwill in business and is the countersign in friendship. It brings rest to the weary, cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and is nature's best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, 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." -Author Unknown

When the world says, "Give up,"

Happiness is a butterfly, which, when pursued, is always just beyond your grasp, but which, if you sit down quietly, may alight upon you. (Nathaniel Hawthorne).

Happiness is not in our circumstances but in ourselves. It is not something we see like a rainbow, or feel like the heat of a fire. Happiness is something we are. (Unknown Author)

MissItalianDiva · 12-08-2011, 05:39 PM

Always expect the best. No matter what you have experienced before, expect the best where you are and from whom you are within the moment. Refuse to thread your future through your past! Live the moment in the moment without carrying a heap of baggage into the possibilities of the moment.

~~Iyanla Vanzant

"A bell is not a bell until you ring it;
A song is not a song until you sing it.
Love in your heart is not put their to stay;
Love is not love until you give it away." - Oscar Hammerstein II

Young souls use pain to learn how things are.
Mature souls use pain to learn how else things might be.
And old souls use pain to learn how else they might be.
