Beautiful Smile

“Life is a mixture of sunshine and rain,
laughter and pleasure, teardrops and pain.

All days can’t be bright, but it’s certainly true,
there was never a cloud the sun didn’t shine through.

So just keep on smiling whatever betide you,
secure in the knowledge that God is always beside you.

And you’ll find when you smile, your day will be brighter
and all your burdens will seem to be much lighter.

For each time you smile, you will find it is true,
somebody, somewhere will smile back at you.

And nothing on earth can make life more worthwhile
than the sunshine and warmth of a Beautiful Smile.”

Balance - One of the Keys to Good Living

I have found two wonderful books that talk about how important it is for both men and women to be aware of their habits in order to have good health. Each text describes events that take place during certain decades of life and what steps can be taken to help keep balance in one's life.

Bottom line – Less stress and healthy eating are very necessary to have a quality life. Make good choices in what you consume and in the activities you pursue. You and your body are worth it! A gift from God you are. :)
