" Easter is the Christian holiday that coincides with the Jewish celebration of Passover . Jesus and his disciples were eating at the last supper and Jesus was later deceived and turned over to the Romans by one of his disciples . The Romans took him to be crucified and he was stabbed in the side , made to wear a crown of thorns , and was hung on a cross with nails through his hands and feet . He was buried in a nearby cave which was sealed off by a large boulder . " One day an officer was running radar in his favorite spot , but with very little luck . Finally , a young man sped by and the officer was off in ' hot pursuit . ' He finally got the young man to stop , walked up , and said , " Young man , I 've been waiting for you all morning . " The young man replied , " I 'm sorry , Sir . I got here as fast as I could . " The officer was laughing so hard he couldn 't write the ticket and said , " Have a nice day . " There were two young brothers , 8 and 10 years old , who were exceedingly mischievous . Whatever went wrong or was missing in the neighborhood , it turned out they had a hand in it . Their parents were at their ' wits ' end trying to control them . The mother went to the pastor and made her request . He agreed , but said he wanted to see the younger boy first and alone . So the mother sent the younger to the pastor . The pastor sat the boy down across his HUGE , impressive desk . For about five minutes they just sat and stared at each other . Finally , the pastor pointed his forefinger at the boy and asked , " Young man , where is God ? " The boy panicked and ran all the way home . Finding his older brother , he dragged him upstairs to their room and into the closet , where they usually plotted their mischief . He finally said , " We 're in Bi - i - i - i - i - i - i - i - g trouble . " I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the clerk noticed that I had never signed my name on the back of the credit card . She informed me that she could not complete the transaction unless the card was signed . When I asked why , she explained that it was necessary to compare the signature on the credit card with the signature I just signed on the receipt . So I signed the credit card in front of her . She carefully compared that signature to the one on the receipt . As luck would have it - they matched ! ! After interviewing a particularly short - spoken job candidate , I described the person to my boss as rather monosyllabic . My boss said , " Really ? Where is Monosyllabia ? " Thinking that he was just kidding , I played along and said that it was just south of Elbonia . He replied , " Oh , you mean over by Croatia ? " I live in a semi - rural area . We recently had a new neighbor call the local township administrative office to request the removal of the Deer Crossing Sign on our road . The reason : Many deer were being hit by cars and he no longer wanted them to cross there . My neighbor works in the operations department in the central office of a large bank . Employees in the field call him when they have problems with their computers . One night he got a call from a woman in one of the branch banks who had this question : " I 've got smoke coming from the back of my terminal . Do you guys have a fire downtown ? " My daughter went to a local Taco Bell and ordered a taco . She asked the individual behind the counter for " minimal lettuce . " He said he was sorry , but they only had iceberg . I called the nearest Pizza Hut , ordered a pizza , and told the employee I would be coming by to pick it up . I asked if they were on the east or west side of the street . She replied , " It depends . Which direction are you coming from ? " A baby was just born . He had all his pieces and looked quite normal , except that he was laughing , I mean laughing really hard . All the doctors and nurses were examining the little one , in front of the worried parents , but he kept on laughing , his tiny fists all closed and tears rolling from his eyes . Police in Radnor , Pennsylvania , interrogated a suspect by placing a metal colander on his head and connecting it with wires to a photocopy machine . The message , " He 's lying " was placed in the copier . The policeman pressed the copy button each time he thought the suspect wasn 't telling the truth . Believing the " lie detector " was working , the suspect confessed . These four friends were so confident that the weekend before finals , they decided to go up to Dallas and party with some friends up there . They had a great time . However , after all the partying , they slept all day Sunday and didn 't make it back to Austin until early Monday morning . They looked at the first problem , worth 5 points . It was something simple about free radical formation . " Cool , " they thought at the same time , each one in his separate room . " This is going to be easy . " Teacher Debbie Moon 's first graders were discussing a picture of a family . One little boy in the picture had a different color hair than the other family members . One child suggested that he was adopted and a little girl named Jocelyn Jay said , " I know all about adoptions because I was adopted . " " What does it mean to be adopted ? " asked another child . " It means , said Jocelyn , " that you grew in your mommy 's heart instead of her tummy . " As I was driving home from work one day , I stopped to watch a local little League baseball game that was being played in a park near my home . As I sat down behind the bench on the first - baseline , I asked one of the boys what the score was . " We 're behind 14 to nothing , " he answered with a smile . Really , " I said . " I have to say you don 't look very discouraged . " " Discouraged ? " the boy asked with a puzzled look on his face . " Why should we be discouraged ? We haven 't been up to bat yet . " Whenever I 'm disappointed with my spot in my life , I stop and think , about little Jamie Scott . Jamie was trying out for a part in a school play . His mother told me that he 'd set his heart on being in it , though she feared he would not be chosen . On the day the parts were awarded , I went with her to collect him after school . Jamie rushed up to her , eyes shining with pride and excitement . " Guess what Mom " , he shouted , and then said those words that will remain a lesson to me : " I 've been chosen to clap and cheer . " This teenager lived alone with his father , and the two of them had a very special relationship . Even though the son was always on the bench , his father was always in the stands cheering . He never missed a game . This young man was still the smallest of the class when he entered high school . But his father continued to encourage him but also made it very clear that he did not have to play football if he didn 't want to . But the young man loved football and decided to hang in there . He was determined to try his best at every practice , and perhaps he 'd get to play when he became a senior . All through high school he never missed a practice nor a game , but remained a bench warmer all four years . His faithful father was always in the stands , always with words of encouragement for him . When the young man went to college , he decided to try out for the football team as a " walk - on . " Everyone was sure he could never make the cut , but he did . The coach admitted that he kept him on the roster because he always puts his heart and soul into every practice , and at the same time , provided the other members with the spirit and hustle they badly needed . The news that he had survived the cut thrilled him so much that he rushed to the nearest phone and called his father . His father shared his excitement and was sent season tickets for all the college games . This persistent young athlete never missed practice during his four years at college , but he never got to play in the game . It was the end of his senior football season , and as he trotted onto the practice field shortly before the big play off game , the coach met him with a telegram . The young man read the telegram and he became deathly silent . Swallowing hard , he mumbled to the coach , " My father died this morning . Is it all right if I miss practice today ? " The coach put his arm gently around his shoulder and said , " Take the rest of the week off , son . And don 't even plan to come back to the game on Saturday . Saturday arrived , and the game was not going well . In the third quarter , when the team was ten points behind , a silent young man quietly slipped into the empty locker room and put on his football gear . As he ran onto the sidelines , the coach and his players were astounded to see their faithful teammate back so soon . " Coach , please let me play . I 've just got to play today , " said the young man . The coach pretended not to hear him . There was no way he wanted his worst player in this close playoff game . But the young man persisted , and finally feeling sorry for the kid , the coach gave in . " All right , " he said . " You can go in . " Before long , the coach , the players and everyone in the stands could not believe their eyes . This little unknown , who had never played before was doing everything right . The opposing team could not stop him . He ran , he passed , blocked and tackled like a star . His team began to triumph . The score was soon tied . In the closing seconds of the game , this kid intercepted a pass and ran all the way for the winning touchdown . The fans broke loose . His teammates hoisted him onto their shoulders . Such cheering you 've never heard ! Finally , after the stands had emptied and the team had showered and left the locker room , the coach noticed that the young man was sitting quietly in the corner all alone . The coach came to him and said , " Kid , I can 't believe it . You were fantastic ! Tell me what got into you ? How did you do it ? " He looked at the coach , with tears in his eyes , and said , " Well , you knew my dad died , but did you know that my dad was blind ? " The young man swallowed hard and forced a smile , " Dad came to all my games , but today was the first time he could see me play , and I wanted to show him I could do it ! " A lesson in " heart " is my little , 10 year old daughter , Sarah , who was born with a muscle missing in her foot and wears a brace all the time . She came home one beautiful spring day to tell me she had competed in " field day " - that 's where they have lots of races and other competitive events . Because of her leg support , my mind raced as I tried to think of encouragement for my Sarah , things I could say to her about not letting this get her down - but before I could get a word out , she said , " Daddy , I won two of the races ! I couldn 't believe it ! " And then Sarah said , " I had an advantage . " I knew it . I thought she must have been given a head start … some kind of physical advantage . But again , before I could say anything , she said , " Daddy , I didn 't get a head start . My advantage was I had to try harder ! " A four year old was at the pediatrician for a check up . As the doctor looked in her ears and asked , " Do you think I 'll find Big Bird in here ? " The little girl stayed silent . Next , the doctor took a tongue depressor and looked down her throat . He asked , " Do you think I 'll find the Cookie Monster down there ? " Again , the little girl was silent . Then the doctor put a stethoscope to her chest . As he listened to her heart beat , he asked , " Do you think I 'll hear Barney in there ? " " Oh , no ! " the little girl replied . " Jesus is in my heart . Barney 's on my underpants . " A little boy about 10 years old was standing before a shoe store on roadway , barefooted , peering through the window , and shivering with cold . A lady approached the boy and said , " My little fellow , why are you looking so earnestly in that window ? " " I was asking God to give me a pair of shoes , " was the boys reply . The lady took him by the hand and went into the store , and asked the clerk to get half a dozen pairs of socks for the boy . She then asked if he could give her a basin of water and a towel he quickly brought them to her . She took the little fellow to the back part of the store and , removing her gloves , knelt down , washed his little feet and dried them with a towel . By this time the clerk had returned with the socks . Placing a pair upon the boy 's feet , she purchased him a pair of shoes , and tying up the remaining pairs of socks , gave them to him . She patted him on the head and said , " No doubt , my little fellow , you feel more comfortable now ? " As she turned to go , the astonished lad caught her by the hand , and looking up in her face , with tears in his eyes , answered the question with these words : " Are you God 's Wife ? Bob and the Lord stood by to observe a baseball game . The Lord 's team was playing Satan 's team . The Lord 's team was at bat , the score was tied zero to zero , and it was the bottom of the 9th inning with two outs . They continued to watch as a batter stepped up to the plate whose name was Love . Love swung at the first pitch and hit a single , because Love never fails . The next batter was named Faith , who also got a single because Faith works with Love . The next batter up was named Godly Wisdom . Satan wound up and threw the first pitch . Godly Wisdom looked it over and let it pass . Ball one . Three more pitches and Godly Wisdom walked , because Godly Wisdom never swings at what Satan throws . The bases were loaded . The Lord then turned to Bob and told him He was now going to bring in His star player . Up to the plate stepped Grace . Bob said " He sure doesn 't look like much ! " Satan 's whole team relaxed when they saw Grace . Thinking he had won the game , Satan wound up and fired his first pitch . To the shock of everyone , Grace hit the ball harder than anyone had ever seen . But Satan was not worried ; his center fielder let very few get by . He went up for the ball , but it went right through his glove , hit him on the head and sent him crashing on the ground ; then it continued over the fence for a home run ! The Lord 's team won . The Lord then asked Bob if he knew why Love , Faith , and Godly Wisdom could get on base but could not win the game . Bob answered that he did not know why . The Lord explained , " If your love , faith and wisdom had won the game you would think you had done it by yourself . Love , faith and wisdom will get you on base , but only My Grace can get you home . My Grace is the one thing Satan cannot steal . trek up a mountain to assess the inferno 's damage . One ranger found a bird literally petrified in ashes , perched statuesquely on the ground at the base of a tree . Somewhat sickened by the eerie sight , he knocked over the bird with a stick . When he struck it , three tiny chicks scurried from under their dead mother 's wings . The loving mother , keenly aware of impending disaster , had carried her offspring to the base of the tree and had gathered them under her wings , instinctively knowing that the toxic smoke would rise . She could have flown to safety but had refused to abandon her babies . When the blaze had arrived and the heat had scorched her small body , the mother had remained steadfast . Because she had been willing to die , those under the cover of her wings would live … And every year her husband sent them , tied with pretty bows . The year he died , the roses were delivered to her door . The card said , " Be my Valentine " , like all the years before . She knew this was the last time that the roses would appear . She thought , he ordered roses in advance before this day . Her loving husband did not know , that he would pass away . He always liked to do things early , way before the time . Then , if he got too busy , everything would work out fine . She trimmed the stems , and placed them in a very special vase . Then , sat the vase beside the portrait of his smiling face . She would sit for hours , in her husband 's favorite chair . While staring at his picture , and the roses sitting there . She brought the roses in , and then just looked at them in shock . Then , went to get the telephone , to call the florist shop . The owner answered , and she asked him , if he would explain , why would someone do this to her , causing her such pain ? " I know your husband passed away , more than a year ago , " The owner said , " I knew you 'd call , and you would want to know . The flowers you received today , were paid for in advance . Your husband always planned ahead , he left nothing to chance . There is a standing order , that I have on file down here , And he has paid , well in advance , you 'll get them every year . There also is another thing , that I think you should know , He wrote a special little card … he did this years ago . Then , should ever I find out that he 's no longer here , that 's the card … that should be sent , to you the following year . " She thanked him and hung up the phone , her tears now flowing hard . Her fingers shaking , as she slowly reached to get the card . Inside the card , she saw that he had written her a note . Then , as she stared in total silence , this is what he wrote … " Hello my love , I know it 's been a year since I 've been gone , I hope it hasn 't been too hard for you to overcome . I know it must be lonely , and the pain is very real . For if it was the other way , I know how I would feel . The love we shared made everything so beautiful in life . I loved you more than words can say , you were the perfect wife . You were my friend and lover , you fulfilled my every need . I know it 's only been a year , but please try not to grieve . I want you to be happy , even when you shed your tears . That is why the roses will be sent to you for years . When you get these roses , think of all the happiness , that we had together , and how both of us were blessed . I have always loved you and I know I always will . But , my love , you must go on , you have some living still . Please try to find happiness , while living out your days . I know it is not easy , but I hope you find some ways . The roses will come every year , and they will only stop , when your door 's not answered , when the florist stops to knock . He will come five times that day , in case you have gone out . But after his last visit , he will know without a doubt , to take the roses to the place , where I 've instructed him , and place the roses where we are , together once again . " certain aspects of her final wishes . She told him which songs she wanted sung at the service , what scriptures she wanted read , and what dress she wanted to be buried in . She also requested to be buried with her favorite Bible in her left hand . Everything was in order and , as the pastor was preparing to leave , the woman suddenly remembered one final request that was very important to her . " Please Pastor , just one more thing " , she said excitedly . " Sure , What is it " came the pastor 's reply . " This is very important to me , " the woman continued … . . " I want to be buried holding a fork in my right hand . " The pastor gazed at the woman , with a loss for words . " That surprises you , doesn 't it ? " the woman asked . The pastor replied " Well to be quite honest , I 'm puzzled by the request . " The women explained . " You see , Pastor , in all my years of attending church socials and potluck dinners , I remember that when the dishes were being cleared after the main course , someone would inevitably lean over to me and say , ' Keep your Fork ' … it was my favorite part because I knew that something better was coming , like velvety chocolate cake or deep dish apple pie . Something wonderful , and with substance to end the great meal " . The pastor listened intently and a smile came upon his face . The woman continued , " So , I just want people to see me there in the casket with a fork in my hand and I want them to wonder … . ' What 's with the fork ? ' … Then I want you to tell them : " Keep your Fork …… the best is yet to come . " The pastor 's eyes welled up with tears of joy as he hugged the woman good - bye . He knew that this would be one of the last times that he would see her before her death . But he also knew that the woman had a better grasp of Heaven then he did . She KNEW and trusted that the best was yet to come . At the funeral , everyone that walked by the woman 's casket saw her wearing a beautiful dress with her favorite Bible held in her left hand and a fork held in her right hand . Over and Over the pastor heard people ask the question , " Why is she holding a fork ? " And his smile began to get larger and brighter each time . During his message , the pastor told the people about the conversation that he had visited with the woman shortly before she died . He explained the fork and what it symbolized to her . The Pastor told everyone how he could not stop thinking about the fork and how he hoped that they would not be able to stop thinking about it either . When you ran around the house getting ready I knew there would be a few minutes for you to stop and say hello , but you were too busy . At one point you had to wait fifteen minutes with nothing to do except sit in a chair . Then I saw you spring to your feet . I thought you wanted to talk to me but you ran to the telephone and called a friend to get the latest gossip . I watched as you went to school and I waited patiently all day long . With all your activities I guess you were too busy to say anything to me . I noticed at lunch you looked around , maybe you felt embarrassed to talk to me , that is why you didn 't bow your head . You glanced three or four tables over and you noticed some of your friends talking to me briefly before they ate , but you didn 't . That 's O . K . There was still more time left , and I have hope that you will talk to me yet you went home and it seems as if you had a million things to do . After a few of them were done you turned on the TV , I don 't know if you like TV or not , just about anything goes there and you spend a lot of each day in front of it , not thinking about anything - just enjoying the show . I waited patiently again as you watched the TV and ate your meal but again you didn 't talk to me . At bedtime , I guess you were too tired . After you said goodnight to your family you plopped into bed and fell asleep in no time . That 's okay because you may not realize that I am ALWAYS there for you . I 've got patience more than you will ever know . I even want to teach you how to be patient with others as well . I love you so much that I wait everyday for a nod , prayer or thought or a thankful part of your heart . It is hard to have a one - sided conversation . My brother - in - law opened the bottom drawer of my sister 's bureau and lifted out a tissue - wrapped package . " This , " he said , " is not a slip . This is lingerie . " He discarded the tissue and handed me the slip . It was exquisite ; silk , handmade and trimmed with a cobweb of lace . The price tag with an astronomical figure on it was still attached . " Jan bought this the first time we went to New York , at least 8 or 9 years ago . She never wore it . She was saving it for a special occasion . Well , I guess this is the occasion . " He took the slip from me and put it on the bed with the other clothes we were taking to the mortician . His hands lingered on the soft material for a moment , then he slammed the drawer shut and turned to me . " Don 't ever save anything for a special occasion . Every day you 're alive is a special occasion . " I remembered those words through the funeral and the days that followed when I helped him and my niece attend to all the sad chores that follow an unexpected death . I thought about them on the plane returning to California from the Midwestern town where my sister 's family lives . I thought about all the things that she hadn 't seen or heard or done . I thought about the things that she had done without realizing that they were special . I 'm still thinking about his words , and they 've changed my life . I 'm reading more and dusting less . I 'm sitting on the deck and admiring the view without fussing about the weeds in the garden . I 'm spending more time with my family and friends and less time in committee meetings . Whenever possible , life should be a pattern of experience to savor , not endure . I 'm trying to recognize these moments now and cherish them . I 'm not " saving " anything ; we use our good china and crystal for every special event - such as losing a pound , getting the sink unstopped , the first camellia blossom . I wear my good blazer to the market if I feel like it . My theory is if I look prosperous , I can shell out $ 28 . 49 for one small bag of groceries without wincing . I 'm not saving my good perfume for special parties ; clerks in hardware stores and tellers in banks have noses that function as well as my party - going friends . " Someday " and " one of these days " are losing their grip on my vocabulary . If it 's worth seeing or hearing or doing , I want to see and hear and do it now . I 'm not sure what my sister would 've done had she known that she wouldn 't be here for the tomorrow that we all take for granted . I think she would have called family members and a few close friends . She might have called a few former friends to apologize and mend fences for past squabbles . I like to think she would have gone out for a Chinese dinner , her favorite food . I 'm guessing - I 'll never know . It 's those little things left undone that would make me angry if I knew that my hours were limited . Angry because I put off seeing good friends whom I was going to get in touch with - someday . Angry because I hadn 't written certain letters that I intended to write - one of these days . Angry and sorry that I didn 't tell my husband and daughter often enough how much I truly love them . I 'm trying very hard not to put off , hold back , or save anything that would add laughter and luster to our lives . And every morning when I open my eyes , I tell myself that it is special . Everyday , every minute , every breath truly is … a gift from God . He motions to the priest , and they both hop in a jeep and go out the back door . There are about 50 acres of rolling hills with a little cottage on the knoll . St . Peter turns to the priest and says " This will be yours for eternity . A perfect little cottage , right next to a wishing well . Anything you wish on that wishing well will come true guarantied . " St . Peter drops off the priest , goes back to the pearly gates and motions to the bus driver . They hop in a stretch limo and go out the front door . There are about 500 acres of land , with mountains and lakes and rivers . There is a huge castle on one of the mountains with about 200 rooms . St . Peter says " This will be yours for eternity . You can live in that castle with servants to wait on you hand and foot , and you can have everything you want . " Apply red nail polish to your nails before clipping them . The red nails will be much easier to spot on your bathroom carpet . ( Unless you have a red carpet , in which case a contrasting polish should be selected ) . I woke up early today , excited over all I get to do before the clock strikes midnight . I have responsibilities to fulfill today . I am important . My job is to choose what kind of day I am going to have . And here I am , the sculptor who gets to do the shaping . What today will be like is up to me . I get to choose what kind of day I will have ! Everything happens for a reason . Nothing happens by chance or by means of good luck . Illness , injury , love , lost moments of true greatness , and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul . Without these small tests , whatever they may be , life would be like a smoothly paved , straight , flat road leading to nowhere . It would be safe and comfortable , but dull and utterly pointless . The people you meet who affect your life , and the success and downfalls you experience , help to create who you are and who you become . Even the bad experiences can be learning experiences . In fact , they are probably the most poignant and important ones . Talk to people that you have never talked to before , and actually listen . Let yourself fall in love , break free , and set your sights high . Hold your head up because you have every right to . Tell yourself you are a great individual and believe in yourself , for if you don 't believe in yourself , it will be hard for others to believe in you . You can make of your life anything you wish . Create your own life and then go out and live it with absolutely no regrets . Most importantly , if you love someone tell them , for you never know what tomorrow may have in store . And learn a lesson in life each day you live . When I was a little boy , my mother used to embroider a great deal . I would sit at her knee and look up from the floor and ask what she was doing . She informed me that she was embroidering . I told her that it looked like a mess from where I was . As from the underside I watched her work within the boundaries of the little round hoop that she held in her hand , I complained to her that it sure looked messy from where I sat . She would smile at me , look down and gently say , " My son , you go about your playing for a while , and when I am finished with my embroidering , I will put you on my knee and let you see it from my side . " I would wonder why she was using some dark threads along with the bright ones and why they seemed so jumbled from my view . A few minutes would pass and then I would hear Mother 's voice say , " Son , come and sit on my knee . " This I did only to be surprised and thrilled to see a beautiful flower or a sunset . I could not believe it , because from underneath it looked so messy . Then Mother would say to me , " My son , from underneath it did look messy and jumbled , but you did not realize that there was a pre - drawn plan on the top . It was a design . I was only following it . Now look at it from my side and you will see what I was doing . " Many times through the years I have looked up to my Heavenly Father and said , " Father , what are You doing ? " He has answered , " I am embroidering your life . " I say , " But it looks like a mess to me . It seems so jumbled . The threads seem so dark . Why can 't they all be bright ? " The Father seems to tell me , " ' My child , you go about your business of doing My business , and one day I will bring you to Heaven and put you on My knee and you will see the plan from My side . " His name was Fleming , and he was a poor Scottish farmer . One day , while trying to make out a living for his family , he heard a cry for help coming from a nearby bog . He dropped his tools and ran to the bog . There , mired to his waist in black muck , was a terrified boy , screaming and struggling to free himself . Farmer Fleming saved the lad from what could have been slow and terrifying death . The next day , a fancy carriage pulled up to the Scotsman 's sparse surroundings . An elegantly dressed nobleman stepped out and introduced himself as the father of the boy Farmer Fleming had saved . " I want to repay you , " said the nobleman . " You saved my son 's life . " " No , I can 't accept payment for what I did , " the Scottish farmer replied , waving off the offer . At that moment , the farmer 's own son came to the door of the family hovel . " Is that your son ? " the nobleman asked . " Yes , " the farmer replied proudly . " I 'll make you a deal . Let me take him and give him a good education . If the lad is anything like his father , he 'll grow to be a man you can be proud of . " And that he did . In time , Farmer Fleming 's son graduated from St . Mary 's Hospital Medical School in London , and went on to become known throughout the world as the noted Sir Alexander Fleming , the discoverer of Penicillin . Years afterward , the nobleman 's son was stricken with pneumonia What saved him ? Penicillin . The name of the nobleman ? Lord Randolph Churchill . His son 's name ? Sir Winston Churchill . Someone once said : What goes around comes around . Work like you don 't need the money . Love like you 've never been hurt . Dance like nobody 's watching . The star catcher grinned and whispered a plan , " I 'll catch all the stars that I possibly can . Then give them to all of my friends so they will It 's National Friendship Week . Friends are a very rare jewel , indeed . They make you smile and encourage you to succeed . They lend an ear , they share a word of praise , and they always want to open their heart to us . Show your friends how much you care … Send this to everyone you consider a FRIEND . Pass this on , and brighten someone 's day . Nothing will happen if you do not decide to pass it along . The only thing that will happen , if you DO pass it on , is that someone might smile ( because of you ) .
