Lots of Smiles!

Today I took a trip to Ikea for a few things with the children and as always happens ,came home with more than I had intended !
I always enjoy the colourful experience of Ikea with the great room layouts and then the Market place when you get to fill up your trolley... ,lots of opportunities for a Blip I hoped .
Then these great cushions caught my eye and did indeed make me Smile -decision made !
When deciding what to write for my Blip I found the poem below which I think is really lovely ,so read if you have the time ....


A smile costs nothing, but gives a lot.
It enriches those who receive it without making poorer those who give it.
A smile takes only a moment, but the memory of it can last forever.
No one is so rich, or so mighty, that they can get a long without a smile.
And no one is so poor that they cannot be made richer by a smile.
A smile creates happiness in the home, fosters goodwill in business and is the
counter sign of friendship.
A smile brings rest to the weary, cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the
sad and is nature's best cure for trouble
Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen for it is of no value to anyone until it is given away.
Some people are too tired to give a smile so give them one of yours as no one needs a smile so much as he who has no more of his own to give.
