Smile Month could really be any month one might choose and in digging into a bit of research I found that there were several references to August being National Smile Month…Huzzah! Then I dug a little farther, drat and found that the Dental associations in Britain and then the US had a National Smile Month only it’s a bit sketchy as it falls sometimes in June or July….very relaxed it seems. One thing I could find all over was that the second week of August actually has been dedicated as National Smile Week…YES!
Sometimes one just has to take charge and so I have. Realizing that August is without a holiday in our calendar year, National Smile Month could tuck right in and feel at home. So if someone wants to go ahead and have conniptions…they are not smiling then are they? So that’s the story and I’m sticking to it. It becomes National as I promoted it over my laughter call and have callers from other states smiling and laughing along with me so now it is National….:) Official? Ha ha ha….
The idea came up to simply have a good time with the smile as it is always around except perhaps when one might want a frown or a scowl or a variety of peturbed looks that do nothing for our expressions. So Smile Awhile in August and build on a fun alliteration everyday!
Your Mission….should you choose to accept it…..
Take the daily suggestion and look for evidence of it all day long. The first day starts with a Worthwhile Smile as it is easy to look for and you may jest find it by looking in the mirror. Maybe you want to keep count, perhaps you want to create or simply put on the smile of the day and have it your way. In any case enjoy the experience and at the end of the month if you are better off for it…the mission is a success. You get out of your day what you put into it so if this appeals, draw up your lips and grin on in to join the jolly!
Remember…it’s jest for fun! Begin Today!
