Laugh often. Starting your day with a good laugh, or at least a big smile, is as beneficial to your health as it is to your mood.

Then virtue and contentment will come and reign within your heart, unsought by any effort of your own; and you will be a good citizen, a loving husband, and a tender father—a noble, pious man.

Ten thousand birds sing in the sunrise. Ten thousand years revolve without change. All this will never be again.
