I'm jealous of toddlers having no social obligations... 
Imagine seeing someone you don't want to talk to, and the second they open their mouth you scream "NOOO!!!" right into their face and run away...

Once, Charlie Chaplin told a joke in front of an audience.
Everyone laughed.
He told it a second time and only a few people laughed.
When he told it for the third time, nobody laughed.
Then he said some beautiful words:
“If you can’t laugh at the same joke over and over, why do you cry over and over the same pain and sadness? That’s why you should make the most of every moment of your life.”
Charlie Chaplin left a great fortune without saying a word or harming anyone.
Let us remember these heartfelt words of his:
1- Nothing in this life is permanent, not even our problems.
2- I like walking in the rain because nobody sees my tears.
3- The most wasted day of your life is the one in which you don't laugh.
Smile at life.

Life can be difficult...
But if you work hard, practice kindness and maintain a good attitude,
will still go horribly wrong and at the end you'll die anyway...
