Smile. It's Therapeutic.

in #life • 7 years ago (edited)

Mother Teresa once said that peace begins with a smile. Let's talk about the power of a smile. A single, warm smile...

It gives an assurance to the receiver that they are desired. It tells them to feel safe in the presence of the giver.

A single, warm smile is an indication to the receiver that they are precious at least in that particular moment.

A single smile can be the difference between a desire to live and a desire to end it all if the receiver is in depression.

Mother Teresa, in all the work that she did, made sure she had a smile ready for the most crippled and despised among us.

Every genuine smile is a gift from God and a sign of hope even in difficult times. The truth is that in moments of difficulty, a loving smile could provide the energy for one to sail through victoriously.


Every genuine smile is a gift from God and a sign of hope even in difficult times.

Think of a case in your own life when someone's beautiful smile made your day. Picture that moment in your mind's eye. Relish it. Smile within. You deserve it! Now go out and smile warmly at someone and make their day!


Smile and light up someone's life today.
