The Surprising Power of a Smile!

Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing, is well said, by Mother Teresa. The miraculous effect that a smile has on others is well-known.  Our Prophet Mohammad (saw) was known to carry a pleasant smiling face. In fact, it became a part of our Prophet’s character. The people who socialized with Muhammad (saw) recognized this characteristic in him. This was how our Prophet (saw), gained the affection of people, and this made them more ready to believe in his teachings that Prophet proclaimed.

The world is full of sorrows, tragedies, and many more reasons to brood and be upset about, but then there is only one thing that can bring in some hope. Yes that is the power of a smile. A bright smile is the most natural and most powerful gift God has gifted us. We should observe what happens when someone smiles? Have you ever seen a new born baby smiling? This is the most beautiful thing one may have experienced. Baby starts smiling from a mother’s womb. In fact human beings first facial expression is a smile.

Smiling has a great power. No matter how we are feeling or what’s going on in our life we should close our eyes and smile. Even when we have/had a terrible day or things aren’t going the way we want them to, a simple smile, even from someone whom we may not know, can actually make our day better. My son’s good smile relieves me from all my worries and tensions and boosts me with energy to do something new in life. Yes, that is the power of smiling which gives us lots of positivity in our life. Especially when it comes from little children! Let’s boost not only our own but the children around us and give them a reason to smile. Our children have the most sincere and innocent smiles. They strike our chords immediately.

No matter what we are doing and where we are employed, seeking a job, retired from service or looking for new horizons in life, starting the day, with a smile is certainly more rewarding. Just a smile a day can keep us young and healthy forever and that is what doctors, researchers and psychologists have reached to conclusions. If we will carry a smile on entering a room or meeting someone, we will have a great first impression. We will spread this positive aura and people other side may even take special note of our pleasant approach and remember us in future exchanges. When we smile at someone we are automatically connected to that person, even when not a single word has been uttered.  If we are short of words smile can play a big role to continue a conversation.
