What is the point of trying
When no one seems to appreciate it
What is the point of talking
When no one seems to listen
What is the point of smiling
When no one seems to notice
What is the point of laughing
When no one else can find the humor

There is a point of trying
Try for yourself
For only you can truly appreciate your achievements
There is a point of talking
For even if no one hears you, you are still speaking your mind
There is a point of smiling
Smile as much as possible
For even if no one notices, you are still happy
There is a point of laughing
Laugh openly and whenever you feel the need
For even if no one else thinks it is funny, your day will still be lightened with humor

Do not do things because you want others to see
Do not wait for others to notice
Do it on your own, without expecting any kind of reaction
For it is then that you find yourself
