A healthy and happy mind will help heal an unhealthy body much faster than when that person is sad and depressed. Sometimes you need to get to the root of the sickness. What is causing whatever it is that the person is feeling. Sometimes it begins as stress. WOW! Stress can certainly do a number on you. Of course sickness comes from real diseases but stress can cause a lot of sickness as well.
There are many reasons and layers to all of us. Let's move from sickness to beauty. That too comes in layers. My quote today, "True beauty comes in many layers." It certainly does. The first one is the one you see. It is your appearance to the world. Your outward appearance. Of course your face but your smile. But what is behind that smile? Is it a sincere smile?
Sometimes we smile because we have to. We are in our work place and the boss walks by and we make eye contact. Smiling at your boss is automatic. Even if you despise this person, you are not going to look at him with a scowl, unless of course you want it to be your last day!
BUT, if you do despise your boss and you are smiling then true beauty does not lay behind that countenance. When you walk by a colleague that you truly like and respect, your smile becomes wide and filled with real joy. Behind that smile is a real meaning of friendship and so underneath you are beautiful too. The saying goes that beauty is only skin deep but it goes all the way down to your heart. Be true to yourself and others when you offer a smile.
I get it. You want to keep your job and it IS polite to smile. But offer a real smile even if it is just for yourself. You will feel better. A smile goes a long way and will reach down to your soul. Smile for those around you and mostly, smile for yourself. Be that true and beautiful person that you are outside and way down deep too! Have a wonderful Thursday everyone!~Love, Amy
