Time heals, and experience teaches that the secret of happiness is in service to others.

Keep smiling, because life is a beautiful thing and there's so much to smile about.

Happiness is not on my list of priorities. I just deal with day-to-day things. If I'm happy, I'm happy - and if I'm not, I don't know the difference... Knowing that you are the person you were put on this earth to be - that's much more important than just being happy.
