today… i decided to smile more, that’s to enjoy more! i should get the max out of life na! so what’s the action plan???
1. google images smile, and download a smiley pic. then use it as my avatar in wordpress
2. goto wikipedia and search for smile
3. wonder y i did all these and scratch my head!
moral of the story??? smile is not the best thing done voluntarily, but always something is better than nothing. I decided to be positive, its positive attitude that can make us cheerful and inturn generate “Duchenne smile”. getting technical??? wikki reports three types of smiles actually. “Duchenne smile” is the genuine smile.
Next is the “Pan American Smile”, this is more artificial one… commonly found in the corporate world. Theres a third one, which is similar to the pan american smile, but refers to the welcome smile of south east asians and is called as the ” Zheng Dao Smile”
So finally my opinion is tat if you keep thinking of the type of smile you want to do, u’ll never make a duchenne!!!
It is important to recognize the power of our emotions–and to take responsibility for them by creating a light and positive atmosphere around ourselves. This attitude of joy that we create helps alleviate states of hopelessness, loneliness, and despair. Our relationships with others thus naturally improve, and little by little the whole of society becomes more positive and balanced.
