smile

A smile is so easy to give but yet we find so few doing it. As you drive along the
road what one notices is the absence of this spark on people's faces. Frowns
and stares is aplenty. The contagious flame that can light others up is much in absence.

A smile comes easily to those who have suffered. Those who have had a
cushioned life go around with a sourpuss face. One has to wrestle a smile
from them - and that too maybe.

Smiles like people and proteins seem to come in various shapes and sizes.
The open smile like open access publishing signals willingess to share.
The hint of a smile is for those who cannot choose between their
no and yes. There is the smile that flashes as if from an
advertisement, making the surroundings bright and cheerful.
Of course, the shy smile is most sought after from certain members
of the species.

You do not need to be in a Mary Poppins movie to be able to love to laugh.
A laugh is just a continuum of smiles over space and time. A laugh is more
like a smile broadcast over a loudspeaker. Laugh or Smile - just different
ways of telling the world that it is a good place for travelling
through space and time.
