It Costs Nothing To Smile
It Costs Nothing To Smile

I Like To Be Around Positive People, People Who Tend To Be Happy, Who Look On The Bright Side Of Life. Far Too Many People Walk Around In What Seems Like A Depressed State. Come On People, It Costs Nothing To Smile.I Must Admit, I Used To Be One Of The Ones Who Walked Around In A Depressed State. I Had Many Things On My Mind, Many Things I Was Not Happy With, I Used To Feel So Sorry For Myself. Even When I Write About It Now, I Laugh About How Pathetic I Used To Be.Things Were About To Change However. At The Time A New Employee Joined The Company Where I Worked, His Name Was Stuart. Now This May Seem Cruel But Stuart Did Not Have A Lot Going For Him. I Won't Go Into Details But Lets Just Say I Did Not Feel Jealous Of His Life. I Became Quite Good Friends With Stuart And We Would Go To Lunch Together. I Would Meet Him In The Canteen At 1pm And Would Be Waiting In My Gloomy State Of Mind For Him To Arrive. Arrive He Certianly Did, Always With A Beaming Smile On His Face. We Would Sit Down And Talk Whilst Eating Our Lunch And He Never Had A Negative Word To Say. When He Talked, He Talked With Passion, About Sports And Films. One Day It Dawned On Me, If Stuart (who From What I Know Of Him, Seemingly Has Nothing) Can Always Be Positive, Happy And Smiling, Why Can't I?This Was The Beginning Of A New Era In My Life. An Era Of Being Positive, Appreciating What I Have Got And More Than Anything Else, Plenty Of Smiles.
