Every couple of days, I run into a woman at a place that I visit often. After a while, she became a familiar face. I’ve never spoken to her, 
but we definitely recognize one another. I know this because we always make eye contact. I began to notice that I never see her smiling. So, I started flashing her a big smile, every day. It’s a nice, genuine smile… not weird and not creepy. It’s not mean. In fact, it’s genuine. I’m a happy person, and I love to smile at people. Every time I see this woman, I keep smiling. I don’t even care how awkward I make the situation. I’ve made it a personal mission to make her smile back.
I think that people who smile are infinitely more beautiful than people who frown. When you smile, your eyes light up, and you appear completely confident. You connect with people, you make people happy, and you look fun and upbeat. Eventually, you become your fun and confident persona. You say so much even though you say very little.
Especially if you are having a bad day, remember to smile a big and happy smile. You’ll feel better knowing how beautiful you are.
