Smile

There's a wonderful song called, Smile, written by Charlie Chaplin for his 1936 film, Modern Times. 
It goes like this:

Smile tho' your heart is aching,
Smile even tho' it's breaking,

When there are clouds in the sky

You'll get by,

If you smile

thro' your fear and sorrow,

Smile and maybe tomorrow,

You'll see the sun come shin-ing thro' for you

Light up your face with gladness,

Hide ev-'ry trace of sadness,

Al -'tho a tear may be ever so near,

That's the time,

You must keep on trying,

Smile, what's the use of crying,

You'll find that life is still worth-while,

If you just smile.

Then, this from Mother Teresa:

“Smile at each other,

Smile at your wife, smile at your husband, smile at your children, smile at each other -- it doesn't matter who it is -- and that will help you to grow up in greater love for each other.”

Ever hear that a smile can alter one's mood?  Just the physical up-turning of one's mouth can infuse one's psyche with happiness and hope. 

Worth trying, don't you think?
