smiles.

A smile is such a simple act, yet it has the power to do so much. Everyone is in the same boat. We are all trying to find our way in this world. We all face our own trials, and some are much more apparent then others. Smiling is so simple but it can let someone else know that you care!

Did you know...

Humans are able to differentiate between a real smile and a fake smile by seeing the difference in a persons eyes when they smile

We are born with the ability to smile, it is not something that we copy. For instance, even blind babies are able to smile.

Smiling releases endorphins and makes us feel better, even when you fake a smile you can feel better

There are over 18 different types of smiles that are used in a variety of social situations. For instance, people can use a smile to say a hello, and they can also use a different type of smile to show their understanding of a particular situation.

When someone smiles in is universally known as an expression of happiness whihc is recognized by almost all cultures.

I found this card and this is what was on the back of it

“A smile costs nothing, but gives much. It reaches those who receive without making poorer those who give. IT takes but a moment, but the memory sometimes lasts a lifetime.

None is so rich or mighty that he can get along with out it, and no one is so poor but that he can not be made richer by it.

A smile creates happiness in the home, fosters goodwill in business, and is the countersign of friendship. A smile is sunshine to the sad, and its nature’s best antidote for trouble.

Yet, it cannot be bought, begged or borrowed or stolen, for it is of no value to anyone until given away.”

There was a note posted on the door of Stover hall this morning. I loved the quote. “ One can always tell a star not by the light she requires, but by the light she gives.”

Share your light :)

Keep smiling
