Thursday Thirteen - Reasons to Smile


1. To show you’re happy.

2. Like yawns, smiles are contagious.


3. To do a simple act of kindness.

4. Because you are wearing a new shade of lipstick. (After all, a girl cannot have too many shades of lipstick.)

5. You feel confident knowing your best girlfriend will tell you if you have something stuck in your teeth.

6. Because that piece of chocolate cheesecake was amazing.

7. You love the sensation of those new panties against your skin.

8. You feel joy in your heart and love energizes you.
(Or was that an oversized pink bunny that just went by?)



9. If you smile enough, you’ll start to believe your face.

10. You just took a deep breath and realized life is grand.

11. Because happiness is the result of being too busy to be miserable.

12. It takes fewer muscles to smile than frown.

13. My favorite reason: Always smile… because others will think you are up to something. And maybe you are.

Lipstick color depends on my mood. I have fair skin and brown hair so I have a tendency to prefer cooler shades.

But when I wear it, I like to smile. :)

Heather said...

yes, all true. It does take less muscles to smile than to frown. And who wants frown lines anyway?
