Smile

Smile is an expression of happiness, pleasure, amusement. It is also a stress reliever. Never been in a situation where there is total silence and someone starts laughing, I bet it will make you smile. I recall I was once swimming in the beach and the relatively calm waters where interrupted by a strong wave, there was this kid in the sand and the wave surprised him and for a moment there was silence, and then he start laughing, as only a 5 year old kid can. It was so contagious, you could almost feel his happiness. Refreshing how in a moment we learn to decide if the wave that hit us is going to be a motive of happiness or otherwise.

I read a long time ago in a Selections Magazine an article about how if you disguise yourself, sooner than later you become that what you are acted upon. I guess is one of those things that influenced my life. The article was about this particular person that was an actor and was not feeling particularly well that day but he needed to work and after a while he realized that he was feeling really good. Sometimes I think about that and act as if I was the happiest person on earth and I can tell you that for me, it works.

I can totally agree with Bob Marley when he sings "Don't worry, be happy"

Try it.
