Since it’s Friday, here is something a little more lite. I found this wonderful and inspirational video created by ChaplinsViolin a little while back and really, really like it. The song in the video is titled “Smile.” Originally composed by Charlie Chaplin in 1936 for his movie “Modern Times.” The lyrics were added in 1954. Basically the song is about cheering up and remembering that tomorrow can be brighter if you remember to smile. It is a great message! The song has been sung by a number of artists through the years.
Enjoy the video, I hope it makes your day better. Remember to smile “You’ll find that life is more worthwhile, if you just smile.” I have included the lyrics below : )
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You’ll get by…
If you smile With your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile if you’ll just…
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what’s the use of crying
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you’ll just…
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it’s breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You’ll get by…
If you smile
Through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you’ll just Smile…
That’s the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what’s the use of crying
You’ll find that life is still worthwhile
If you’ll just Smile
