Interface
I have a friend named Sally,
But that's not what this is about,
It's all about the way you go,
When you're going out.

If you go with happiness,
Even if you go 'round undone,
Your day will be graced each moment,
With laughter and with fun.

But, if you sally forth with anger,
And a face that's pinched and mean,
You might find that you are friendless,
And have no one on whom to lean.
