Satsuma Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I thought it was a good idea to post this because its lovely and very true. I hope you enjoy it. I got this poem when i was doing some training at work (weird place to get one) and i thought i would share it with you. The Value Of A Smile It costs nothing but creates much. It enriches those who receive without impoverishing those who give. It happens in a flash and the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None are so rich they can get along without it. And none are so poor, but are richer for its benefits. It creates happiness in the home, fosters goodwill in business and is the countersign of friends. It is rest for the weary, daylight for the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and natures best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody, until it is given away. So if i should be too tired to give you a smile, will you please leave one of yours. For nobody needs a smile so much, as those who have none left to give.
