Successful people have a social responsibility to make the world a better place and not just take from it.
Carrie Underwood
Each morning when I open my eyes I say to myself: I, not events, have the power to make me happy or unhappy today. I can choose which it shall be. Yesterday is dead, tomorrow hasn't arrived yet. I have just one day, today, and I'm going to be happy in it.
- Groucho Marx
The best feeling in the world is realising that you're perfectly happy without the thing you thought you needed
- marxie
When I was in grade school, they told me to write down 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
Being happy doesn't mean you're perfect. It just means you've decided to look beyond the imperfections
- K.B Indiana (age 14)
If you think sunshine brings you happiness, then you haven't danced in the rain.

"Count your age by friends, not years. Count your life by smiles, not tears." ― John Lennon
"The most important thing is to enjoy your life-to be happy-it's all that matters." ― Audrey Hepburn
There is no cosmetic for beauty like happiness. ~Lady Blessington
"Learn to value yourself, which means: fight for your happiness." ― Ayn Rand
I think the key to life is just being a happy person, and happiness will bring you success. ~Diego Val
Happiness is a by-product of an effort to make someone else happy. ~Gretta Brooker Palmer
You cannot always have happiness, but you can always give happiness. ~Author Unknown

Thank you for all the positive messages. A lot of love & energy went into the video and we got a lot back in return. Small crew but mighty they were. We don't have a clue about pushing the video but we are delighted with the response. Thanks again!

It was a team effort Sandy. From the filming to the hands on support, there was no contribution that wasn't appreciated.

I loved this version. Up lifting and real. A couple of minor editing errors at the end but I see it was uploaded on the 17th so well done. I was in Athlone some years back and I remember bozos disco. The video captures Athlone well and I see there has been some developments since my visit. I will be back!
I'm there
Brilliant job Martin. Feeling happy after seeing dat. Pius

Just watched it. Thanks for the rating. There all different, some commercial, others just showing the fun side of a particular place. Our group just did it because we wanted to have a little bit of craic with the public and we did take the opportunity to show Athlone hopefully in a positive way. It's a gem of a town but a town that I believe has being sacrificed to the bigger city of Galway with regards to tourism etc.
WOW... ☺!!!!! @ 2:38
I love athlone its class
Excellent video. Well Done.
