a reason to smile

hello hello hello! :) what did you smile about today? i smiled about quite a few things today. i have a thought for you: think of how many blessings you have and smile for each one. now ask yourself...would you ever stop smiling? today i thought about blessings. as humans, we are blessed. that enough is a reason to smile. did you wake up today? obviously ;) that is a reason to smile. in the twenty four hours of today, you have had 31,536,000 seconds in which to smile. logically, if every second of life is a blessing, and you should smile at every blessing, then today, in 24 hours, you didn't have a reason to not be smiling. so, smile. :) on my way home from work today, i drove past a lake that is full of icky algae due to the tremendous amounts of rain followed by ridiculous heat this gorgeous state of Minnesota has been blessed with. while the lake smells, and the shores look murky, out in the center was a huge sea of sparkles. (love, love, LOVE sparkles) those sparkles were individual waves reflecting the sun. each of those sparkles was a reason to smile. so as you can see, there are infinite reasons to smile...so tomorrow, later today, or even right now, smile at a random person. start a chain. make someone's day. give the world a reason to smile!

hugs, hope, laughter, sparkles, and

...smiles! :)
