Last night, when I was pouring out my grievance to my friend in China on the phone, what he said shocked me. “Are you still wearing a silly smile every day?” he giggled. I hesitated and the said “Yes, so what? I want to stop it but I cannot. You know……” He interrupted me “No. Just keep it. We all like your smile.” I was astonished, for he used to be a cool guy.
This brought me into meditation.” Why do I smile?” Many of my friends once asked me this question. My simple answer is “For no reason”. However, even though I know sometimes I may look stupid, I still cannot quit it or more precisely speaking, I do not want to. I also feel down when I get trapped in a predicament. Nevertheless, one thing I am sure of is that if the hard situation cannot cheer me up, I can do it myself. Happiness is something from our mind. That means it is our choice to be happy or not. So everyone has the talent for being joyful unless he or she doesn’t accept it.
A smile comes easy—you just need to wrinkle up with cheer. I do not know what others think but to me, the dimples of encouragement can really nerve me on to try again when failure makes me upset. So I enjoy others’ smiles. This also gets me itchy to smile.
A smile is worth millions of dollars, but it does not cost a cent. It is one of the most magical things in the world and you can gain it anytime you want. So every morning when you get up, stand in front of the mirror , give yourself a bright smile and liven up your new day.
I don't know the reason, maybe I am too permistic, I think that sometimes, our smiles to others could be considered as nothing. Moreover, smiling too much may make others think you're not reliable. however, smile anyway, we all like it.
ReplyDeleteDo you know, your smile brightens the whole class?
ReplyDeleteIt`s such a pleasure to teach you as you`re not just eager to learn, but you have that perpetual smile that differentiates you from the rest. Some people really don`t know how to smile. They look so glum and miserable, as if the whole world`s problems are on their shoulders. Smiling not only makes one feel good, but others too. Don`t worry about what they say!
Smiling is a habit. Staying with people who love smiling is a very lucky thing. Smiling is a good way for us to motivate ourselves. We all like your smile very much. Just keep it, smiling girl.
