  SAY "CHEESE"

  Look around yourself.Count the number of smiles you see.I bet you will be able to count the number of people smiling on your fingers.We hardly smile anymore.We are a tensed society.Everyone has so much on their minds.Getting admissions,jobs,making money,making more money.It is important to get an edge over the rest of the world.Agreed.

But what are we doing to ourselves??

We are killing our souls,extinguishing our inner light.We are not happy,we don't smile.We are apparently competing with the rest of us to be the more accomplished person but what about being the happier person.Isn't that important.Don't get me wrong.I am not saying that you become content with whatever you have achieved,however much it be,I am just saying that don't run so fast in this race,that you run past your happiness.Find time to enjoy life,its simple pleasures.Spend time with your family,catch up with old friends,make new ones,walk in the rain,buy youself something silly that might be entirely useless but makes you laugh every time you see it.Smile.I read a quote on a t-shirt that said "Smile,it keeps people wondering what you're upto".

Loosen up.Life is too short.Take a break once in a while to enjoy the life you're making for yourself.
