ASmileisAGiftThatAnyoneCanGive

Itcostsnoting,butsavesmuch.

微笑不需要花費你一分錢,但卻能帶來無數.

Itenrichesthosewhoreceive,withoutimpovershingthosewhogive.

它使那些得到它的人富有,卻不會使付出它的人貧困.

Ithappensinaflash,andthememoryofitsometimeslastsforever.

它發生在一眨眼,但它的記憶有時卻是永恒的.

Noneissorichthathecangetalongwithoutit;nonesopoorthatheisnotenrichedbyit.

假如人們可以沒有微笑,那么,無論擁有什么都會覺得貧困.假如人們無法因此而豐盛,那么就沒有什么比這更貧困了.

Itcreateshappinessinthehome,fostersgoodwillinbusiness,andisthecountersignoffriends.

微笑為家庭到來歡樂?,為工作增添善意,是友情的象征.

Itisresttotheweary,daylighttothediscouraged,sunshinetothesick,andNature'sbestantidotefortrouble.

它是緩解疲勞的良藥,是制服氣餒的日光,是治療疾病的陽光,是自然界中打敗困難的靈丹妙藥.

Itcannotbebought,borrowed,orstolen,foritisnoearthlygoodtoanyoneuntilitisgivenaway.

它不能買,不能借,也不能偷,由于在它被賦予他人之前是毫無用處的.

Ifyoumeetsomeonetooburdenedwithgrieforworrytosmile,justgivehimoneofyours.

假如你遇見某人被悲哀和焦慮壓得喘不過氣來,只要給他一個微笑就行.

Fornobodyneedsasmilesomuchashewhohasnonelefttogive.

由于當一個人無法再賦予微笑的時候,他也就不那么需要微笑了!

愛你的媽媽

讓我們花一點點時光，對那個被我們叫做“媽”的人表達敬意和感激之情，雖然有些人當著面說不出口。她是不行替代的。珍惜與她在一起的每一時刻吧。雖然有時候，她可能不是我們最好的伴侶，可能不同意我們的主意，但她依舊是你的媽媽！

你的媽媽始終陪伴你身邊，聽你傾訴難過事，聽你神吹海侃，聽你訴說受挫的沮喪……捫心自問，“是否曾經抽出過足夠的時光陪伴她，聽聽她講繞著灶臺轉的‘煩心事’，聽聽她講她有多疲乏？”

即使你與她意見不一，也要委婉一些，彌漫愛心，對她表示出應有的恭敬。一旦她去了，剩下的就惟獨對過去歲月的美妙回憶和無盡的圓滿。

不要以為，與你心最近，你就理所應得。愛她要甚于愛你自己。沒有了她，生命將毫無意義。
