We are born with the ability to smile, it’s not something that we copy. Anybody can smile, which makes smiling so special. We smile to greet people, to comfort them or just to show our emotion towards them. It is a known fact that human beings can differentiate between a real smile and a fake smile through their eyes, so when we smile we should mean it.

Someone once said “I’ve never seen a smiling face that was not beautiful.” Every one who wears a smile upon the face has a reason to be happy, which is why each secular smile on anyone’s face makes that person so attractive. If you smile then you automatically give off a positive vibe, making others around you smile, and others around them smile, passing on the joy and happiness to the world!

Janet Lane said that “of all the things you wear, your expression is the most important.” Your expression lets people know whether you are happy or sad, which means others around you can comfort you in a suitable way. It is better to show your true emotion then to smile and say that everything is ‘ok.’

“A smile costs nothing but gives much. It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give. It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich or mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Some people are too tired to give you a smile. Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.”

Any body can smile, most of the time there is no reason not too, so next time you are out and about remember, it takes seventeen muscles to smile and forty-three to frown.
