Subversive with a capitol “S”! But even with all those benefits, too many people won’t smile because they believe there’s a hidden cost. Fools.

Not only being free and not taxable, it doesn’t hurt … even softens the heart. Not long ago I wrote my first draft about smiles for a future beach walk.

And just think of the benefits: not only is it contagious, if you smile for yourself, you can actually bring your own spirits up! Plus, it takes less muscles to smile than to frown (and leaves nicer wrinkles 😉 )
