" Cheerfulness is the first thing, cheerfulness is the second, and cheerfulness is the third." It furnishes the best soil for the growth of goodness and virtue. It gives brightness of heart and elasticity of spirit. It is the companion of charity, the nurse of patience, the mother of wisdom. It is also the best of moral and mental tonics.
    " The best cordial of all," said Dr. Mar-shall Hall to one of his patients, " is cheerfulness."
   And Solomon has said that " a merry heart doeth good like a medicine."

"Cheerfulness removes the rust from the mind, lubricates our inward machinery, and
enables us to do our work with fewer creaks and groans.  If people were universally
cheerful, there wouldn't be half the quarreling or a tenth part of the wickedness there is. 

Cheerfulness, too, promotes health and morality. 
Cheerful people live longest here on earth, afterward in our hearts."

O happiness! our being's end and aim!
Good, pleasure, ease, content! whate'er thy name:
That something still which prompts the eternal sigh,
For which we bear to live, or dare to die.
Alexander Pope

Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply,
to enjoy simply, to think freely, to risk life, to be needed.
