I was having a bad day and it seemed like the day was too slow.
And have you ever been in a situation whereby you sleep, eat, play games, read, and so on, and then you look at the time and you discover that just an hour has passed. Then the whole day becomes boring, slow and maybe bad for you?
Well, that what my situation.
Then I decided to go out to catch some fresh air, and I saw this boy (maybe 12 years old). He was playing ball and he mistakenly kicked his ball ⚽️ to me.
In an effort to showcase my skill to him, I wanted to perform a legover trick and unfortunately, I stepped on the ball. And obviously, I fell down.
Then this boy ran to where I was, and stretched out his hands to help me up. I wondered how a boy that size would pull me up.
Then he smiled. And said “Oya na” (in my language) which means “Be fast”
Then I gave him my hand and he helped me up.
_________________________
Then as I continued going my way, I felt like a brand new person.
The boy’s smile was contagious and I count myself fortunate to contact it.
He helped me up when I tripped on a ball and fell.
I was having a bad day. The whole day was boring and there wasn’t a single positivity in that day.
But when I fell, the boy smiled to me and helped me up.
And for the rest of the day, I felt a whole new kind of happiness. So I completed that day with the mindset of an happy fellow.
______________
Smile.💐
Sometimes, people might not have a reason to smile or be happy in a particular day.
But if you are happy, make sure that wherever you go, you smile and uplift others with your smile.
Smile is contagious. Smile is positivity
Smile is a million heartfelt words in just a single facial expression.
Smile is that facial expression that tells you that everything will be okay, even though you think it isn’t okay.
Smile is looking at someone and spreading happiness from yourself to that person.
Smile is reminding yourself that life can be harsh sometimes, but there’s always the other half which is always bright and full of happiness
Smile is the positivity ✅ that covers up the negativity❌
Smile is you. You are smile. When people look at you, they feel happiness because they aren’t just looking at you. They are looking at the smile in you.
Let your smile be contagious. There’s a smile in you. Use it well ❤️❤️
Your smile is my inspiration ❤️
Wow… loved reading this post! Spreading smile creates so much positivity!!

Maybe the cat has been eyeing the bunny from day one. And the bunny is like “Haha! I’m in the house, you can’t catch me😛😛”
And then boom! The bunny got out and the cat got the chance 😂
I’m sorry if you were upset by it. I just take it as the unfortunate food chain.

Does it count as smiling if I see you trip over a ball and end up on your face and it makes me laugh?

😅it doesn’t count as smiling. But if I trip on a ball and end up on my face, and you laugh but also try to make moves to get me up or make me feel better with your words, then it’s a whole new kind of smile.

It’s a Choice! Great post, great msg 😉 A bit similar to my blog tagline: Happiness is a Choice, as is Thinking For Yourself. I often blog that it’s So Easy to be Happy. Happiness is a Decision, it’s a mood, a feeling .. & all those things are inside of you. And many respond with things like I can’t! or How? Or It’s to hard!
Which leaves me somewhat frustrated, as to how else I could explain this thing that I now find so simple ..
It all starts with a thought – so we should think the very best ones 🙂
