Don’t Forget to Smile

“Children smile on the average of 400 times a day;

adults 15 times a day. Ever wonder why?”

 Source Unknown             

 

As I see it . . . . . . .

 

Don’t forget to smile

 

Children know how to enjoy the moments in their life. They are light hearted and it’s in their nature to smile at the drop of a hat.

 

As we become adults we forget how to enjoy our moments and sadly we forget how to smile.

 

Yes I understand that life can be challenging . . . . But there are many moments in our life that we let slip away and we fail to recognize those moments as being special.

 

Many of those moments will bring a smile to our face when we slow down and recognize them.

 

One on the biggest challenges for us as adults are we lose the child that’s in us. When we let go and look at the world through the prospective of the child that’s in us we have a different view of the world.

 

When we see the world through the eyes of a child and we learn how to enjoy life and smile.

 

As you start your day . . . . remember to smile and you’ll find that you’re exchanging smiles with the people you meet.

I smile a lot over the phone and people can tell this. People also sense there is more energy when speaking, when a person stands while doing so.

Less stress is why I'm betting -- that and not being cynical.

Lou - My kids make me smile at least 15 times a day, so does my husband.

Lou, funny that we need to be reminded to smile!  I actually smile a lot when I'm reading ActiveRain and if I'm out with the camera.  Hope your weekend was happy and have a great week.

When my wife and I got married and she would hear me on the phone. She would always say smile, as those on the phone could see you, to prove her point, she would put a mirror in front of me, while i was speaking. It was good training for me.

Thank you for sharing the post with all of us.

Good morning Lou,

A smile is always better than a frown, and others know when you are smiling - even when they can't see your face.

Life is short...choose to be Happy!
