Hello once again, my friends.
Today, I’ve elected to read you a little story.
I was doing a bit of surfing on the net when I came across a particularly sad story.
I’d managed to find a man’s biography. The author’s name was not listed, nor was the name of the man of whom the biography was based.
If it’s not too much of a bother, I’d like to share with you a part of the biography.
“Once, there was a man. He did some s— then died. No one remembered him, nor his works, and I can hardly say anyone cared. He was an average man, of average stock. He had no special talents, nothing worthy of note. The only reason I’m writing this is because I’m not one to turn down a man’s dying wish.”
I can not say I much like the author, but his words struck a note. The story in the above lines repeats itself many times per day, and I, myself, find it sad.
I’d like to ask a favor of everyone who reads this. Find the oddball that no one cares about, and be their friend. Change the world, one smile at a time.

I agree, that is sad… and I agree we should live our lives like everyone has a tattoo on their forehead that says “make me smile”.
