PHILOSOPHY

Welcome the new day with a smile on your face. Love in your heart. Good thoughts in your mind. And you will have a wonderful life.
Take all your chances while you can.
You never know when they'll pass you by.
If you have got a candle you better light it now.
And if you have got a voice you better shout out loud.
Raise your hands above this crowd.
