Smile

It sounds ever so simple 'smile'.  
It's what we do when we meet people, when we're having our photo taken or when we like someone.  But what does a 'smile' mean?
In simple terms it's an outward expression of how your heart or soul resonate with a situation.  

We can all tell a false smile immediately; it's as if we can sense there is no heart or soul behind it.  
So to honestly smile and mean it we need to connect with our hearts and souls and beam brightly with the result.  

For some people a smile, even from a stranger can re-engage them with their hearts and souls.  It makes a deep connection in that fleeting second and if you have ever tried it, you will almost always get a smile in return.  

The angels taught me when I was young that the intention I held in my heart when doing anything was the genuine reason for doing it.  This intention was the true and divine purpose of my actions and would always steer me in the right direction.  So when I smile it is genuine, as I am tapping into a deep connection between my heart and soul and the resounding smile is truly heart felt and heart given.

Smile at someone today, connect with how you feel when you do it.  

If my post has resonated with you today, consider leaving a comment as to do so not only expands your learning and understand but also help others on their path and journey.

Smile

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds, in the sky, you'll get by
If you smile, through your fear and sorrow
Smile, and there'll be tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through
If you'll....

Sung by Judy Garland.

For the past few days this song has been going around in my head.  Its a lovely reminder to Smile at someone today.  

Wikipedia's explanation of a Smile - A smile is a facial expression formed by flexing the muscles near both ends of the mouth.

So why do we smile ?

• We smile at funny things.
• We smile at babies and children.
• We smile when we recognise someone we know.
• We smile at the love in our life.
• We smile when we are happy.
• Sometimes we smile for no apparent reason.

What happens when we smile ?

• Smiling relaxes us and people we meet.
• Smiling helps to boost the immune system.
• Smiling releases endorphines in the brain, helping us feel good.
• Smiling helps to lower blood pressure. 
• Smiling helps to relive stress.

So the evidence shows that smiling is good for us.  Ask your angels to remind you to smile, use this beautiful Gift we have all received from God. 

Let's keep doing it, smile at someone today - they may smile back. 

Sad Faces in all kinds of Places

Up early this morning, rushed about to get the usual drab housework out of the way.  Today I'm heading into town, got a special purchase to find; a pressie for my Sister's birthday.  Not exactly 21 but near enough. Oh she'll cringe when she reads this.

The weather is dreary and cold, rain pouring down in bucketfuls but it doesn't dampen my spirit and I know I'm just going to get the right present.  My daughter and I head off in the car, I'm wearing a big smile on my face, looking forward to my day out - Freedom at last!

Town is pretty quiet for a Wednesday morning, thank God, can't abide throngs and crowds.  Too much energy and negativity to deal with.  But this morning is bliss as I enjoy myself, strolling around with only the odd individual passing by completely engrossed in their own thoughts or nattering away on their phones.

After musing about in a few shops, we return to the Shopping Centre and the crowds have built up a little.  As I walk through the on coming sea of faces, I can't help but notice how many people look sad, blank, or downright angry. Why I ask my angels are they so upset?  The only response I get is 'Life'.  Engrossed in their busy lives they've been rushing about getting this and that done, minds somewhere else and totally ignoring all that is around them.  I wonder if they're thankful for being here today?  How many miracles have they experienced today?  Do they know they all have an Angel walking behind them?

However, I can't seem to stop smiling and every now and then I catch someone looking at me.  They have a questioning look.  I imagine I can hear them sayin, "What's she smiling at?"  It doesn't stop me smiling and sadly I only receive 2 smiles back.

I figured out why I was smiling, I was meant to brighten up their day.
So Smile when you can it can help someone you don't even know in so many ways.

It's Sunday Afternoon

It's Sunday afternoon.
Sitting by the open window,  sipping my usual cup of tea I relax into the silence that envelopes me.
The soothing background of life drifts through the open window.

It's a day for letting go,  a day to breath deeply,  relax and exhale all the pent up rubbish i've accumulated through the week.  The sunlight reflects through my beautiful hanging crystal and i'm enveloped in a flash of blue crisp light,  Archangel Michael is surrounding me in his loving light embrace.  A reassurance that all is fine,  that I am protected and loved and a confirmation that its a good time to let it go.

I love the energy of Archangel Michael and smile as I say,  'Thanks for that Michael, and just when I needed it most.  I can always depend on you to reassure me when I need it, God bless.'
The Archangels and Angels always make me smile even when i'm angry,  sad,  annoyed.  I love the energy they exude and the wave of love I receive as they tell me all will be okay,  don't worry or some other reassuring message.

The sun dips behind a cloud,  no rain yet thank god.
I cherish my times here by the open window communing with nature and all the angels.  Sitting back and watching life swirl by.  Its a unique opportunity that many others dream of,  and I through the Angel's blessings am living it,  loving it and excited by every moment I experience it.
