too strong for fear,
and too happy to permit the presence of trouble."

Always make your optimism come true.

"To think only the best,
to work only for the best,
and to expect only the best.
To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others
as you are about your own worth."

I see trees without leaves
knowing soon they'll be green.
Skies of blue
clouds of white
the white blessed days
wearing cheerful faces
and sharing smiles.

and sharing smiles.
Look up!
I think to myself
What A Wonderful World
Do not be afraid to let your mind wander.
In the noisy confusion of life,
keep peace in your soul
and take good care of you.
