User:Paine Ellsworth/Smile at Death

Mors nos omnes ridet. Omnes quae vir agere potest est rursus ridet. – Latin for "Death smiles at us all. All we can do is smile back."

Heard it said that there are two certainties in life: death and taxes. Only half true. One of the two certainties in life is death to be sure. The other certainty is not taxes. The other of the two certainties in life is your ability to smile. Even the youngest little baby knows how to smile without being taught how. The smile is an instinctive gesture of good feelings. What happens after death is uncertain to us all at best and is a fearful thing at worst. Do you want to quell your fear? your painful fear of death? Then when death comes to you, when it's on your doorstep, when death hurls itself upon you with its own smiling face, you be sure to smile back – give death a big grin right back. We only get one crack at this, so give Death your cutest little-baby smile!


Death doth smile at us all. To be certain, you have to smile back, and anything else that happens to you or doesn't happen to you will not matter – not in the least. You'll be "past carin'". 'Twon't matter at all. – that's English for "Remember to smile back." (It's crucial that you practice your smile at every opportunity – as often as you possibly can!)
