You never worry about the last laugh if you’ve been laughing the whole time.
Everything that’s really worthwhile in life comes to us free – our minds, our souls, our bodies, our hopes, our dreams, our intelligence, our love of family and friends and country. All of these priceless possessions are free.
Learn to enjoy every minute of your life. Be happy now.
