I confess, I am a bit of a pessimist! If you have a great idea, I can usually come up with a reason why it won't work. Often, I'm a little gloomy, especially when I start worrying about money. But I am working on it (slowly but surely... I've been working on it for YEARS). Smiles are said to be contagious, too. So when you see me (or someone else you know) looking a little down, give a smile. We just might smile back in return!
Smiling is free. You can do it anytime, I can do it anytime and it doesn't affect my checkbook balance. I can smile even when I don't feel like it. I'm pretty sure there is even evidence that smiling can change your mood...
So smile a little bit today!
Community Conversation: Are you an optimist? Do you smile a lot? What other great things are free?

HUGS!!! :) And yes, I smile a lot. In fact, I get in trouble for smiling too much at times. I have been proposed to (twice!) by men who thought I was flirting with them, when in fact, I was just smiling!!! Isn't that crazy?!!
