THE POWER OF A SMILE
The power of a gun can kill and the power of fire can burn
The power of wind can chill and the power of a mind can learn
The power of anger can rage inside until it tears you apart
But the power of a smile, especially yours, can heal a frozen heart
– Tupac Shakur

Each of us can contribute to the well-being of ourselves, our communities and our world.” – Jack Kornfield

Rejoice, for your soul is alive. – Eleonora Duse
