Spare a Minute...

-

            As he was halfway through his morning jog, his mind was so much occupied. Though it was very quite outside early in the morning, his soul was so loudly shooting out unanswerable questions of the unplanned future. In far he could see a cyclist coming towards him. He hardly noticed him and was once again immersed deep into the ocean of thoughts. Before he could even realize, the cyclist was near him, the cyclist was. And as he lifted his eyes to have a look at him, the cyclist did something that made his whole day bright.

          

The cyclist looked at him smiled and signaled thumps up. “Wow! That was incredible” thought the jogger. After that, the pace of the jogger increased, he slowly started to smile. Suddenly he started to realize how the day around him was beautiful and the dark clouds of questions seem to calm down within him.

 Yes! A smile... A genuine, beautiful, simple smile can change a lot.

            We never know what the other person’s day was. Maybe they had a long day at work or a rejection at an interview or missing out a loved one and so on. We cannot go to anyone and everyone’s lives and try to make it perfect. Rather we can smile at them and give them the positivity to march towards it.

     Smiling towards family and friends is good, smiling towards strangers is best but Smiling towards yourself is so much important.

Your best cheerleader is none other than you!

Now try these two simple things:

1. Smile at yourself in the mirror while brushing.

2.Smile at the first person you see in the morning.

See what difference it makes…

Keep Smiling…

Lynn

    Yes, smiling produces happy endorphins and it takes less muscles to smile than to frown.

    I always think the same, you just never know what's on someone else's mind :) A smile can be everything and even help someone in a way you never know!

    I absolutely ADORE this post! I always make a point to smile all day long, at whoever I can. I've been met with a lot of comments such as "what on Earth are you so happy about?", but mostly people are pleased to be met a smile and return one back to me, which helps me keep my smile going 😊

    I used to be a happy go lucky kind of person but I dont like to smile anymore but yes smiling can trick the body into helping you elevate your mood because the physical act of smiling actually activates neural messaging in your brain. A simple smile can trigger the release of neural communication boosting neuropeptides as well as mood-boosting neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin.

    I like this and your point is right, we should smile more to ourselves and others...what you give is what you get

    It is hard for me to smile with all that is going on in the world. But, I agree with you - a positive outlook is always better than a negative one.

Dear Friends…                       Do you have kids at home? Do they handle smart phones? If yes...This article is just for you. When I was a child I remember my mom showing me trains and vehicles while feeding me. I also have seen young mothers pointing out the moon saying funny tales to feed their kids. Few use to tell lots of interesting and lovely stories during the bed time and meal time as well. Later on Television came into existence, children were glued in front of the TV and now “Tabs and smart phones” are given into the hands of tiny tots. I can happily list down my favorite childhood games: “hide and seek, Lock and key, Kitchen sets, tent making, Carom, Chinese whisper, Rock paper Scissors, playing cards, Chess, Ludo etc.,” but when I asked the present generation toddlers, they replied “Talking Tom, Temple Run, Angry bird, Ice cream Paradise, Candy crush etc.,”  Toddlers are  touching  screens...

Dear People,   Tell me what do you do when your phone is getting charged?! I'll go for a short walk as if I am working out hard...Thinking about the battery percentage! How do you feel when you misplace your mobile phone that too in silent mode (!) or when it gets drained out or when you get stuck in an out of Network coverage area?   Yes! That Mini panic attack moment...Here is where we all start to experience Nomophobia!   We start our day by entering pin, painting patterns or pressing our phone to prove ourselves to our Smart friend in regular basis. We spend ample time with phones rather than with family. We can’t help missing our digital buddy even at restrooms! And there, red flags of Nomophobia are shown!   It is described as the Fear of being without Mobile phone, a kind of Smart phone Seperation Anxiety. Nomophobia is abbreviated for No-Mobile-Phone Phobia. The term was coined by the Post Office Commission YouGov, a research organizatio...
