Everytime you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. ~Mother Teresa
I gave myself that gift the other day. To meditate with a conscious smile is wonderful experience. the smile adds another dimension to the process. I participated in a group meditation last week with a focus on the heart and on the smile and i felt the light growing within – and inner joy. The smile remained with me for several days and the world smiled back as well. I found that certain thoughts do not enter in or stay around for long when you have a smile. I must remember to consciouly smile more often.
A smile costs nothing but gives much. It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give. It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich or mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Some people are too tired to give you a smile. Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give. ~Author Unknown
