"It takes courage to smile during difficult times." We must not let difficulty affect our smiles. We must let our smiles affect our difficulties.

"One has to be happy where they're at before they'll be happy where they'll be. " The present, when unchanged, becomes the future. If a person is happy now, it aids in being happy in the future; if one is not happy now, the future is likely to be the same. One can always pull themselves out of unhappiness.
