Smile

A smile

By Anonymous

Smiling is infectious,
You catch it like the flu,
When someone smiled at me today,
I started smiling too.

I passed around the corner,
And someone saw my grin,
When he smiled I realized,
I’d passed it on to him.

I thought about that smile,
Then realized its worth,
A single smile, just like mine,
Could travel round the earth.

So, if you feel a smile begin,
Don’t leave it undetected.
Let’s start an epidemic quick,
And get the world infected.

      One smile, one laugh can brighten another person’s day.  Being genuinely positive and exuding confidence is contagious.  We’ve all been around a stranger in an elevator when we’re grumpy, tired or just had a bad day and you initially think, “Really, someone else just had to get on . . .great.”  And, then that person turns to you, smiles and says “Have a great day,” and gets off.  You then find yourself echoing the same sentiment with a genuine smile on your face.  It’s amazing how such a simple and seemingly small gesture can brighten your mood.  So, instead of walking around with that frown on your face, try something crazy and smile.  If you try this, you’ll soon notice two things – (1) that eventually that forced smile soon becomes a real smile and (2) you’ll notice that others around you will start echoing your smile.  So, let your smile radiate across the room and the world will be a little brighter for it.
