In life, learning to laugh, smile, or just not take it too seriously is a true gift. It's a gift we all have, but we don't know how to use it or share it with others.

Yes...there is an apt expression that I have personally found to be 99% true.
"No good deed goes unpunished."
Only once did it not come back and bite me in the you know where. Only once did I get a thank you... I can only conclude the 99% were terribly emotionally disturbed to the point of being deaf and blind. Sad, but true.

Life is like a card game. You'll never know the hand that your dealt, but as long as you keep a good poker face you should be able to pull through.

"Almost every wise saying has an opposite one, no less wise, to balance it."
This is one of many pithy remarks attributed to the 20th century philosopher George Santayana. For more of his remarkable observations on life and humanity see source material below.
