A smile....


I had to go to the orthodontist on Friday. I had to get braces when I was a fifth grader, and so I'm very familiar with that office, and all of the decorations in it. I was brushing my teeth in the office, getting ready for the people to work on my mouth, and I saw a sign that said, "A smile is the prettiest thing someone can wear" I had been looking for something to write about, and I wasn't succeeding until I read that. I thought about what that really means. When you first look at it, it doesn't look like there could be so much wisdom in that quote, but there really is. I mean, so many people, especially girls, and women of all ages, get caught up in how they look, and if this shirt makes them look fat? or does this eye shadow make me look better? These questions get asked so frequently, and it is sad that some people don't see how beautiful they really are. That quote really means a lot, because it is saying, it doesn't matter what clothing you are wearing, how your make-up makes you look, it really matters if you are happy. You can be wearing the most attractive outfit in the world, and it may fit you real well, but if you aren't happy, and your attitude is showing that you don't want to be there, doing that, or whatever, you won't look as pretty as you would if you were happy.
It isn't so much what you are wearing as it is the attitude you have. If you have a happy disposition, it will automatically make you look better than if you were acting grumpy.
So my advice to you is to be happy, and rock whatever outfit or new makeup you are wearing!!!

  3. That was very well written and very motivating. It makes me realize
    why there are certain people I don't like to be around because of their attitude. And I hope that I'll keep smiling so that people want to be around me!
