I read this poem recently and thought it rather poignant. Even when you face your biggest challenge and bravely battle on, always remain true to yourself. Your smile is something you can always wear with pride when you say My Name Is NOT Cancer!
Keep On Smiling
© Alexandra Skiathitis
If at times you feel you want to cry.
And life seems such a trial.
Above the clouds there’s a bright blue sky
So make your tears a smile.
As you travel on life’s way
With its many ups and downs
Remember it’s quite true to say
One smile is worth a dozen frowns.
Among the world’s expensive things
A smile is very cheap
And when you give a smile away,
You get one back to keep.
Happiness comes at times to all
But sadness comes unbidden
And sometimes a few tears must fall
Among the laughter hidden.
So when friends have sadness on their face
And troubles round them piled
The world will seem a better place
And all because you smiled.
