Smiling Makes You Beautiful!

I've never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful. - Author Unknown

Research has shown that smiling makes you feel better.

Not only that, smiling boosts your immune system. So if you are feeling down - the weather is rotten, you feel chilly and you don't want to catch that cold, smile and smile again. It will help you to get through the day!

Smiling helps you feel less stressed too and it actually seems to lower blood pressure!

The muscles you use when you smile help your face to look younger. A smile makes everyone and anyone look more approachable. So take your confidence and your smile and make friends - smile and most people will smile back!

You can, make someone's day with a smile.

I started with a quote so I'll finish with one too! No one knows who wrote this. It is just someone's anonymous gift to the world. And whoever you are - thank you!

"The Value of a Smile

It 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 creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in business, and is the countersign of friends. 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 for it is something of no earthly good to anybody until it is given away willingly."
