smiling elf
always smiling elf has had one of the hardest lives
but he was taught terrific lessons by his parents
no matter how much he was hurting,
the only way out of the hurt
was to help someone else
if you are helping someone, you forget your troubles, they had said.
both parents were terrific at helping others.
He had lost them both in the last few years.
He had no one else.
But by helping others, he actually had everyone else.
He was well-loved throughout his village.
