We must not forget how to smile, do not let hate take that away. Although folks may appear hostile, we must not forget how to smile. Yet, I'll admit it's been a while since I've felt a smile come my way. We must not forget how to smile, do not let hate take that away.

Such a simple truth and a simple thing to do. I know when someone smiles at me or when I smile at someone it makes me feel cheerful. Congrats on your win in my contest! Blessings, Kim M
