KEEP SMILING !!!

Smile.....

At times they mean and portray our real emotions, sometimes just a fake one, and yeahhh... The sarcastic ones exist too !!

It is said that you can find out the real nature of a smile in an individual's eyes.. When we really feel the moment and and genuinely mean it, then there is a soft glow or shine that comes in our eyes.

Smiles can overcome a lot of problems and prevent relationships from hardening or simply make matters flow...

But one particular smile that i am personally intrigued by is the one that we give when no one is around.. It is not for any one's benefit or to showcase anyhing. It just comes and lightens things around.

You are listening to the radio and suddenly a song starts playing which you liked a lot when you were a kid and there you go.. SMILESSS !!! Another one plays and you know it is the one which used to be the chartbusters at the time you were going around with that special some one and it used to warm your heart at that time and yess.. It creats the same magic even today and you smile remembering those moments and thinking how life goes on and ahead...

You are searching your laptop for some particular file/ document and you come across a snap of yours taken in college times.. You are enjoying the time, giggling, just doing time pass...a bunch of MBA students and you smile.. Remembering those carefree times when you were not bounded by office timings and you were your own king !

One sees a bunch of students in the metro talking animatedly about CAT entrances, Discussing Coaching institutes, trying to figure out what disciplines to opt for in MBA, placements etc. And there you are. You get a feeling of "Being There And Having Done It All !!" And again, you just smile.. It feels nice somehoe watching others being there where you were at some time time of life and how important it felt then !

You are lying on the bed going through the day in your mind... You remember something nice that one of your collegues said. That time you could not appreciate the beauty of his thoughts but at this time you are free and you smile to yourself in the darkness.

You are looking for the right clothes to wear in your wardrobe. And you spot a nice piece of clothing, a favourite of yours. When you had picked it up a year back, you had gone with a good friend to a mall. You had picked it up 5 times from the rack, kept it back, because you were undecisive, then tried it once, asked your friend 10 times if it was worth the money or looked good at you. Today you know it looks great at you, it has proved it monetary worth and most importantly, you are no more in the same city where it was bought and the friend is distant now, atleast location wise.... Such stuff, accessories bring back a hoard of memorable moments, cities, places ! You just can't help but smile and spend time thinking about the place and people....

Similar is the case with movies, which you had watched first time in theatres with friends, family etc. Some food items which hold special place in our life, particular restaurants, certain dates, incidents... Which are absolutely personal to you and everytime you come across them or remember them or witness anything similar you simply smile !!!

You like walking at night, you are doing the same but alone.... You remember the times when you had amazing company to accompany you. You smile at the remembrance and feel special again...

One is browsing the phone for some particular message to be forwarded to some particular person and there you a hillarious joke .. One reads it and splits into laughter all alone and again !

One particular incident that I particularly smile at whenever i come to think of that friend is how she used to call my Tummy JELLY BELLY !!! I can never fail to smile at this one.... Infact if I am frank then I literally laugh out loud !!

You are cooking something in the kitchen, you have become quite professional at making it. But there was a time when cooking this same particular stuff seemed no less than Rocket Science ! And decoding the secret of cooking it nicely was like cracking some tough computer program ! Can you restrain a good , full on smile at such fond remembrance ?

One day you are arranging your stuff, in an old bag. And you come across a neatly filed, or kept good old birthday cards given to you bt friends when you were just kids... Try not smiling at such a time... I am sure you will fail !

Alone or in a group there are always some secret or personal pointers which make one smile , reasons unknown to others !!!!!

KEEP SMILING !!!!
