A smile costs nothing but gives much. It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give. It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich or mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Some people are too tired to give you a smile. Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

Oh she's beautiful! I LOVE this quote about smiles. It's true that some last a lifetime. I distinctly remember a morning when my husband picked me up from work and my Ethan was about 3 months old. The smile he greeted me with that morning was burned right onto my heart and brain and to this day I can still see it in my head!
ReplyDeleteThanks for reminding me how lucky I am to see this smile every day!
