The many benefits of smiling

Smile is a good way of expressing the feeling of happiness. Apart from the feeling, it has more benefits both physically and mentally. When you smile it relaxes your cheek bones. Also when you smile it gives a good feeling and increases the positivity.  Even if you fake a smile it will do wonders in your body but not that much beneficial than the genuine one. So, why fake it? Say cheese 🙂

    • That child in the picture must be the happiest child ever. That smile is for sure addictive I just found myself smiling when I looked at it. Smiling is a great way of keeping ones heart happy and full of joy always. Smiling chases away blues. When you smile you can be sure that you will make someone else also smile. Smiling also makes your muscles relax you cannot have tensed up muscles when you smile. I like what you have said that smiling makes people trust you more. That's new to me but if I can look at my life and the people around me i realize that that statement actually makes a lot of sense. Being gloomy all the time doesn't give people the appetite to stick around you because all they feel and see is negative energy which is an outright turn off. And also frowning makes you age faster while smiling makes you look younger everyday.

    • @Ngiam Kee Wei Well said. Smiling has the power to cure diseases and it will prevent any diseases from attacking us. It is as the old saying, "Laughter is the best medicine." So, it is better to smile and get friends rather than being gloomy and create negative energy. Thanks for reading. :)

    • @Anitah Gimase When I was searching for pictures of a smile this particular kid just stole my heart. I mean just a look at that face made my day to be happy and energetic all day. We were like this when we were kids too. We didn't have any priorities, or work or nothing so we were able to give a heart warming smile just like the kid in that picture. I liked you said you have earned a lot of friends because of smiling and it is true in my case too. I always smile a lot even while waiting for a traffic signal at random people. Why because is this will create a positive feeling for both you and to the person you are smiling. A simple smile will make someone's day positive and happy. We will also feel contented and fresh. Thank you for reading. :)
