SMILE, BABY, SMILE.


Start every day with a smile and get it over with. W.C. Fields


"Today, give a stranger one of your smiles. It might be the only sunshine he sees all day."


A smile is a curve that sets everything straight. Phyllis Diller


"Life is like a mirror, we get the best results when we smile at it."


A smile is an inexpensive way to change your looks. Charles Gordy


Beauty is power; a smile is its sword. Charles Reade


"A smile is a powerful weapon; you can even break ice with it."


"Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy."

The last quote is one of the quotes that stays on my mind. I first read it from "The Secret"; the book basically says that everything that happens to us is the result of what we have thought. Think positive and we will attract positivity into our lives.

But how can we think positive thoughts when we are down? Well, the book suggests us to SMILE.

When we smile, our brain will automatically think of the good memories, like it can 'activate' happy centres in the brain and thus will make us feel happy. Force it and try to hold it for one minute or so, I always do it when I'm upset and it works like magic! :)
I hope you get what I'm trying to say hehee... If you don't, I strongly recommend you to read the book (The Secret). It will change your whole life in a good way.
