Question About A Smile

There is so much to smile about as each day dawns anew Let me take a moment to identify a few. There's the sunshine every morning The stars that twinkle at night The wind that tickles the treetops the moon that glows so bright. There are raindrops on the roof… a rainbow in the making. The aroma of coffee in the morning the scent of cookies baking. There's a baby's laugh, a good movie you're favorite book or favorite song that when you hear it on the radio you can't help but sing along. There's clouds reflected on the water, birds soaring across the sky There's the touch of a hand, a warm embrace or the look in a loved ones eyes. A smile…just look at the Mona Lisa, is truly a masterpiece. It is the universal language of kindness the beginning of love and friendship and peace. Beauty stretches across it, it can amuse, seduce…beguile Think about it: Have you ever regretted anything that has ever made you smile? If a smile is so beautiful, so indispensable…so refined If it's so important to a healthy life… then one question comes to mind. Why is it as babies and children we smile more than 300 time a day? Why when we're young are we filled with smiles aplenty? And why, by the time we become adults, do we smile less than twenty?
