Happy Saturday everyone! So how was your Black Friday experience? Did you get everything you wanted? Where people polite? Did you share your smile with anyone who just may have needed it?
I stayed away from the stores. I did some shopping but Amazon is just a click away and it already has shipped. My son and daughter wanted Rock Band 2 and yeah they know they are getting it. Thats the big gift that they wanted they have some other stuff coming but don't want to spoil it here.
Had some Turkey leftovers wow it tastes better than the day before as usual.
Today is a big reunion of sort at a club/bar near where I live.
Some 29 years have gone by since this band rock/cover of sorts has performed. I helped them with setting up and the lights as I will tonight.
How we all must have changed over 29 years? How some of us have stayed they same in some ways. I am looking forward to it. Wow 29 years seems hard to fathom sometimes.
Today I share with you a post from the past, a reflection of sorts. I hope you enjoy.

When in doubt Smile!
When you smile the whole world smiles back at you. Mother Teresa said it best when she was quoted
Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. ~Mother Teresa
A gift that someone may need at that moment. Indeed an action of love that is given without any cost and most importantly sets your state of mind in a proper frame.
When you walk with a smile the word sees strength and as Greta Garbo put it.
" Anyone who has a continuous smile on his face conceals a toughness that is almost frightening" ~ Greta Garbo
Power that you have and control with a simple action, the smile. It may be the easiest way to defuse a grouch, a few weeks ago I spoke of the 'energy vampire' and how they can drain the spirit with or without any malice in their motive. The best way to deal with any loss of happiness is to be grateful and smile and know that a better minute is on its way.
Gratitude, we all can be grateful for something as this quote reveals.
Let us rise up and be thankful, for if we didn't learn a lot today, at least we learned a little, and if we didn't learn a little, at least we didn't get sick, and if we got sick, at least we didn't die; so, let us all be thankful. ~Buddha
Take this minute to be thankful, take this second to me happy and take this day to smile! A good thought for today and all of our tomorrows.
Power Action Thought for Today Number 77 Be Thankful, and grateful and above all be aware that your smile is the sword that cuts through anothers grief.
Make a difference today and be the Smile advocate at your place of work, school or home.
You will be grateful that you did and be fortunate that you were able.
Till then Smile! :)
