Smile, without a reason why…


T, from the Haifa community, sent us this short meditation inspired by an Ahinoam Nini song.

In the life of each person ( adult and child) there are sometimes hard times. In such moments the most important thing is not to despair, to be sure and to believe that everything will be according to God's will – i.e. that everything will be all right. " Life is beautiful!" – sings Ahinoam Nini, in the song from the Italian film by Roberto Begnini. Both – the film and the song - are full of optimism. "Life is beautiful!" – the wonderful, pure voice of the singer helps us to see life in a true light, helps us to remember that the Lord is always with us, even in our very difficult moments…

Let this beautiful and wise song give hope to our souls and courage to our hearts.

Rejoice!

Smile, without a reason why

Love, as if you were a child,

Smile, no matter what they tell you

Don't listen to a word they say

Cause life is beautiful that way.


Tears, a tidal wave of tears

Light, that slowly disappears

Wait, before you close the curtain

There is still another game to play

And life is beautiful that way

Here with his eyes forevermore

I will always be as close as you

remember from before

Now that you're out there on your own

Remember what is real and

what we dream is love alone

Keep the laughter in you eyes

Soon your long awaited prize

We'll forget about our sorrows

And think about a brighter day

Cause life is beautiful that way.

We'll forget about our sorrows

And think about a brighter day,

Cause life is beautiful that way

There's still another game to play

And life is beautiful that way.
