As Long as you Smile

I just found the most awesome quote from my Tumblr account. "As long as you smile, life will smile back."

Do you have any idea how true this is? And, we aren't talking about those fake, forced smiles. Because believe it or not, life knows it isn't real.

I'm talking about the smile that you wear genuinely even if you can't stand your life and the people in. You're smiling because you know you are better than to let it get you down. You are smiling because you know no matter how bad your life might be, there is always someone somewhere who has it ten times worse.

Of course, there are going to be those people on here that read this and wonder, 'How could anyone have a life worse than mine?' Just do a little research of the people in third world countries. We take so much for granted here. Their lives are, to us, sad and horrible. But, to them, it's life and they don't know any different. They are smiling because they make the best of every day they are given because they know it's a miracle they are there.

Also, this quote is talking about mind over matter type of stuff here. I am a firm believer that if you think the worst is going to happen, it probably will. So, you have to think positively that life is going to get better. Look for the best in people, and eventually it'll come out. Will power is everything.

So, please remember, as long as you smile, life will smile back.
