While we ate dinner, he joined in our talk and laughter. After- wards, I wished him a happy evening. I have not forgotten his smile. When I make some- one happy, I have offered them a gift from myself. " Take this gift, " a gift which brought pleasure to both. Pain Zilius recalled, " 1 made an elderly shopkeeper happy when I gave her flowers on her 90th birthday. " After I had helped someone, the whole world be- came beautiful.
