What is in a smile?According to the Longman Dictionary of Contemporary is English ,a smile is "an expression in which your mouth curves upwards ,when you are being friendly or are happy or amused".
All it takes to smile is just a little curve upward of your lips.You do not have to go an extra mile in order to smile .The good news is ,a smile is free.It does not cost a cent ;and when we smile ,our face muscles are exercised ,which in turn ,help us look younger .So ,the first secret is,with a smile,you age slowly and gracefully ;and you need not throw money on expensive antiaging creams!
"A smile begets a smile."Have you heard of this famous saying? It means that when we smile at someone ,the person spontaneously returns another smile .That is the greatness of a smile . It is very infectious.Very rarely is a smile responded with a frown ,unless a person 's mental or emotional state is unstable ! Almost all the time,as we give the smile, even to a total stranger,the receiver smiles back .This is the first steps towards a friendship.
A smile also gives us the opportunity to convey our feelings or whatever that we want to utter.It helps to create a bond when we are lost for words.It allows people to regain their composure or confidence when approaching the unknown.
In today's busy world ,people are always racing against time,so much so that even the basis of a smile is forgotten.How often do we smile at the people in the car next to ours when we are caught in a traffic jam?How often do we purposely open our doors to greet our neighbours? Within a family unit,do we remember to smile at our loved ones?
