life can be tough on each and every one of us. but when things are not going well and when one is at the biggest level of depression, can a simple smile by someone bring a sense of happiness into you. does that really work. could this make the world a better place.

a smile can do a lot of things but bring happiness? i would say no. a smile can indeed make you feel better and brighten your day. but smiling isn't going to pay the electric bill, put gas in your car, make the baby quit crying, make your husband get off the couch and get a job or bring the cows home. the list goes on but smiling is the result of someone being happy. but smiling is contagious if everyone did it then maybe just maybe this world would be a better place. i smile everyday and sometimes people look at me...like "what are you smiling at?" or "what are you smiling for?"lol....win some you lose some.lol
