A highly recommended bug to catch !!!!!

nell18-3 by nell18-3 Young Parent(May 2008) (rank 3rd)

I appear to have caught something infectious

It starts with my mouth

Whereas my lips used to turn down

I’ve noticed now they are often curved in an upward direction

How do I know its infectious????

Its because if I wake up in the morning and my mouth is curved upwards

It appears I pass it on to everyone and soon we are all doing the same !!!!

I’ve been told on the quiet this infection has been referred to a smile !!!

Once you have caught the bug, there seems to be no cure

However it may not be too bad as there does appear to be several pluses that come along with this ailment.

1) Once I have this smile, it appears that the household is calmer and more relaxed

2) This smile brings along butterflies in the stomach of excitement, (actually a nice feeling)

3) I find myself looking forward to things not dreading things

4) The children seem so much happier and definitely more relaxed

5) It takes away all the worry frowns and creases that used to be all over my face

6) I have more energy !!

7) Complete strangers are more pleasant when they see me with this “smile”

8) Discipline in the family home is more pleasant, there are no nasty or snide comments made to each other


So finally I caught a bug that is definitely worth catching, it has a positive effect on the whole family.
If you see anyone with you who also is suffering with this affliction, please go up and befriend them, I highly recommend that everyone catches this bug.
It would truly benefit the family, the community, the area, the country and the entire planet, if we all acquire this highly contagious bug
the name of it just in case you have already forgotten is:

This smile was missing in your face for far too long so do you mind if I remind you the next time I notice it's not there? It is a true fact of life that none of us mind catching this bug.

Hi

And just remember

If you see someone without a smile give them one of yours as no matter how many you give away there is always another one to replace it

Luv you know who

You're welcome

I discovered a smile is answered with a smile and a scowl is equally met with a scowl too
