The Value Of A Smile

   It cost nothing, but creates much
           It enriches those who receive 
            without impoverishing those 
                        who give                        
It happens in a flash and the memory of it lasts
                           forever
None is so rich he cannot get along without it, nor so
               poor but is richer for its benefits
It creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in a  business, and is the countersign of friends
It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and Nature's best antedote for
                          trouble
Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody
                 till it is given away
Nobody needs a smile as much as he who has none
                         left to give
