MAKE ME SMILE
As I stumble through this life, help me to
create more laughter than tears,
dispense more happiness than gloom,
spread more cheer than despair.
Never let me become so indifferent that I
will fail to see the wonder in the eyes of a child
or the twinkle in the eyes of the aged.
Never let me forget that my total effort is to cheer people,
make them happy and forget - at least momentarily -
all the unpleasantness in their lives.
And, in my final moment, may I hear You whisper:
'When you made My people smile, you made Me smile'
