A long time ago, a friend’s Mom gave me a wall hanging with a wonderful words which I would like to share with you:
‘A friendly smile costs nothing, but gives so very much. It is as welcomed as early flowers or a gentle touch.
It enriches those who receive it, taking nothing from those who give that smile. It is always remembered for as long as we are destined to live.
None are so rich or so mighty that a smile won’t brighten their day and none are so poor or deprived they cannot afford to give one away.
A smile is a moment of pleasure in the home or to those we meet. It’s a countersign of our friendship as we stroll along the street.
It’s cheer to those discouraged. It is sunshine to those feeling lost. The best thing to be said about it is the fact that it has no cost.
It is something that cannot be purchased, borrowed or stolen this day for it is something that has no value until it is given away.’
