Power of a Smile

“Smile!”

Then the camera flashes. As the light fades, so does your smile. You ever smile at someone as a thank you or hello, and once they leave your mouth returns to its normal thin line?

Next time, just hold it a little longer. Make the most of the opportunity, and Smile from the Heart. Smile as if you are smiling at them. Not just smiling for the sake of acknowledging their meager presence that conveniently happened to make its way into your life. Smile as if something good in you is given to them. Smile without expecting them to return the smile. Smile with gentleness and naturalness.

Smile because when you really smile, others can see it. Your eyes glitter, your smile is prettier, and your face glows.

Smile because that’s the kind of face that brings happiness in others. Who knows, it might even brighten someone’s day.

Smile because it can uplift your spirit and make you a happier person.

Smile because life can be difficult. Might as well make the most of the happy times, and learn to develop determination and patience through those difficult times.

Smile because you might miss the point if you take life too seriously all the time.

Smile because it’s infectious, and others would want to smile too. It is the new way to change the world, regardless of who, where and when you are.

Smile because it’s the cheapest, but most endearing gift you can give someone.

Smile because that’s the face that people fall in love with, and remember for years to come.

Hope you’re smiling by now! If not, give it a try! What have you to lose?!
