Wow. No wonder you are one of my favorite poets. I absolutely loved this! It's so inspiring, and it actually had a huge impact on me. You are right about this... you really should just keep smiling, despite the obstacles. Great job hun... you always seem to amaze me with your poems!

YES!! This is another inspiring and powerful write. People don't realize that it takes less muscles to smile than to frown, so come on people turn that frown upside down and smile. It truly doesn't hurt and its not hard to do. I agree with your theory Nat, even when agitated people come to my office, I offer them a smile and by time they leave, they're smiling too!! No matter what goes on in life, I always try to keep a smile on my face anyways..... write on girl and keep on smiling!!
