Smile for all Filipinos

SMILE
By: Nat King Cole

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 see the sun come shining through for you
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 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 just smile

A Smile to all Filipinos

They said that one of the character traits of Filipinos is “Joy and Humor”. Is it true?
Of course YES. Filipinos have the ability to cheer and laugh and fun loving approach to the ups and downs of life. Laughing at themselves and the mess they are in is an important coping mechanism. In many instances, they are playful, sometimes cynical, and laugh at those they love and at those they hate and make jokes about their misfortune. The sense of humor certainly, provides emotional balance and optimism.
