Happiness is not so much in giving or sharing.
We make a living by what we get,
but we make a life by what we give.

The Language of a Smile

There's a special language spoken
By everyone on earth
No matter what their country,

No matter what their birth;

It transcends all time and space.

It's known alike by old and young

And found in every place.
Those who speak it often

Always find that it's worthwhile

Everybody understants it-
It's the language of a smile!
