So this was a blog thing a while back, but since life can be overwhelming at times it never hurts to take a step back and think about everything you're grateful for in your life.

What are your reasons to smile? :)

All our dreams can come true — if we have the courage to pursue them.

People have said to me that I have a smiling face, thank you, mum and that I look good Only when I smile. Now who wouldn't smile after hearing that?

And oh, I read somewhere that whenever you smile or laugh harder your facial muscles gets worked up which prevents you from early wrinkles and stuff.

Orrr.

When you trip but don't actually fall.
When there's enough leaves on the ground to kick a whole bunch up into the air.
When there's something new about something familiar that you never noticed.
Instead, he said, Brother! I know your hunger.
To this, the Wolf answered, Lo!

Reasons to smile :

1. Life and it's many simple pleasures.
2. The aroma of coffee or tea first thing in the morning.
3. Fall TV season and summer reruns.
4. You lost a couple of pounds instead of gaining them. Hopefully those pesky pounds won't find you again.
5. The compulsive texter getting pulled over for... texting while driving.
6. Your favorite sports team wins.
7. Listening to your favorite music loud enough to possibly damage your hearing.
8. Watching children laugh and play, and then doing as they do. Hop, skip, jump, laugh... smile.
9. Being a parent and/or grandparent and making memories.
10. Winning... anything.
11. Rays of sunshine.
12. The Walmart greeter who welcomes you and your money that you are guaranteed to spend.
13. Rain, thunder, and lightning storms.
14. Not feeling bloated.
15. The beach, feet in the sand, waves, smell of the ocean, and collecting shells.
16. Karma... you gotta love it.
17. A good belch.
18. A drama-free day.
19. Overcoming a fear.
20. Paying off a car loan and having a enough money for a full tank of gas to proudly display your paid-off car around town.
21. A wedding and the happiness that surrounds it, even if it's a shotgun wedding.
22. When someone gives you an "atta boy/girl" for a job well done.
23. Baby animals of all types.
24. Passing a yearly health physical with flying colors.
25. No new facial wrinkles for at least a week.



The tools of conquest do not necessarily come with bombs and explosions and fallout. There are weapons that are simply thoughts, attitudes, prejudices; to be found only in the minds of men. For the record, prejudices can kill, and suspicions can destroy. A thoughtless, frightened search for a scapegoat has a fallout all of its own.
