Smiles from the threshold of the year to come,

"When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down happy. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment.
I told them they didn’t understand life."
- John Lennon
