Smiling

Let's talk about smiling. That simple therapy that people do not know about.
You know I see the way some people just squeeze their faces everywhere they are like nothing can bring down the walls they've built.
There is a funny thing I believe in, that if you squeeze your face too much, you'll grow old faster. But come to think of it, as you keep squeezing your face all the time, you start getting all these wrinkles around your face and next thing a 25 year old lady or man is looking like a 45 year old lady or man.
Really, what does it take from us to smile. It won't hurt you instead it'll build you up and even open some doors you thought won't get open.
I have learnt that in every situation I find myself be it good or bad I should smile. It helps give me a positive view of that situation. I have also learnt that my smile is a blessing to people, it's an encouragement to that person who's been having a bad day, it's challenge to that person who is always squeezing their face to smile a bit more, and it has also opened up doors that only that really pretty smile could open.
I see when people ask whether my mum is my sister because of how young she looks and you know I've come to learn that it's because of that beautiful smile. I wonder why my dad doesn't look all old like those around his age despite he's busy schedule, work and ministry and  I have come to know that he smiles more and just leaves all those problems for God to settle.
So you know as you walk on the road and you think about that thing that is not just going right, just smile and hand it all over to God, it's His to settle. As you come across that guy, man, lady, woman whose day has been trashy just smile at them and assure them that everything is fine.
Before I forget, DO NOT TRY TO CARRY YOUR BURDEN ALONE. GOD SAID TO CAST IT ALL ON HIM SO WHY ARE YOU HELPING HIM CARRY WHAT YOU OUGHT NOT TO CARRY? CAST IT ALL ON HIM AND SMILE SOME MORE.
