One thing that I know about smile is that it is the last thing that I want to see on people's face when I fall flat on my butt...

I know that even when I feel like crap, when I can force myself to smile, I suddenly begin to feel happy. Go fig ^_^

The power of a smile is HUGE. Scientists have shown that even a fake smile (with all smile muscles, including eyes, involved) can actually produce the brain chemicals that induce joy. A real smile (induced by a happy memory or thought) can be even more poweful in that respect.

And that's just upon the smiler!

To see the effects of a smile on other people, try offering a genuine one to strangers in public. You'll only see the tip of the iceberg, but the effects are wonderful. (I know that my whole day has been changed for the positive by a smile from a stranger.)

Oh my goodness, that picture is priceless! What an adorably wonderful little face! Thank you!

(I put that pic in a folder for future grins as required.)

Think of something that happened recently that was funny, laugh, then hold that smile!
