Life Life is a mixture of sunshine and rain, Laughter and pleasure, teardrops and pain, All day can't be bright, but it's certainly true, There was never a cloud the sun didn't shine through So just keep on smiling whatever betide you, Secure in the knowledge God is always beside you, And you'll find when you smile your day will be brighter And all of your burdens will seem so much lighter— For each time you smile you will find it is true Somebody, somewhere will smile back at you, And nothing on earth can make life more worthwhile Than the sunshine and warmth of a beautiful smile. ~ Helen Steiner Rice ~
