William Shakespeare

Как дела

Ah, 'Как дела'? A query that oft times stirs the soul with an eagerness to answer, or a fear to respond. For one's 'dela' can oft be a reflection of one's innermost feelings, and the state of one's heart. Yet, I say to thee, 'Как дела?' need not be met with a dour expression, or a morose reply. Nay, why not meet the query with a jest, and a light-hearted retort? Why not bring a smile to one's face, and a chuckle to one's lips? For 'tis better to laugh than to cry, and 'tis better to jest than to bemoan one's fortunes. So, I say to thee, 'Как дела?' Let the answer be 'хорошо', for 'tis better to be happy than to be sad. Let us all be merry, and live our lives to the fullest.
