If times are hard and you are blue,
Think of others worrying too.
Just because your trials are many,
Don’t think the rest of us haven’t any.

Life is made up of smiles and tears,
Joys and sorrows mixed with fears,
And though to us it seems one-sided,
Troubled is pretty well divided.

If we could look in every heart,
We’d find that each has his part.
And those who travel fortune’s road
Sometimes carry the heaviest load.
