Did you put one on today?
“A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance.”
Proverbs 15:13
When you get dressed in the morning do you remember to wear a smile for the first person you see? I confess I don't always. I'm usually a grump in the morning. I'm slow moving in the morning needing extra time to get myself together. I've been known even to shower and put on my running outfit the night before so I can jump out of bed ready to go to a very early am race. This helps me tremendously in getting out of the house for these early races.
What is a smile? Here is something from an anonymous source: “A smile costs nothing, but creates much good. It enriches those who receive it without impoverishing those who give it away. It happens in a flash, but the memory of it can last forever. No one is so rich that he can get along without it. No one is too poor to feel rich when receiving it. It is rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad and nature’s best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed or stolen."
I don't think we can have too many smiles in our wardrobe. It's a very inexpensive accessory to have handy. Did you put one on today? It's much better than putting on a scowl don't ya think?
