A smile is a beautiful thing. Its a symbol of happiness and a force of nature. Yes, a force of nature. Have you ever observed what happens within you when you smile, or better yet, forced yourself to smile when youre feeling down?

微笑是一种美好的表情。它是快乐的象征,也是自然的魅力。是的,自然的魅力。你是否曾经注意过微笑的时候自己发生了什么变化,或更理想的是,当你情绪低落时是否强迫过自己微笑?

Give it a try right now. No matter how youre feeling or whats going on in your life, close your eyes and smile. Observe the feeling of warmth that wells up in your belly as you do it. Observe the move in your energy as you turn that frown upside down. If youre still not convinced, go in front of a mirror and notice how you look when youre smiling. Once again, observe how you feel within as your facial expression changes. If youre feeling particularly cheeky, look yourself in the eyes, smile and say, “Youre awesome!”

現在马上试一下吧。无论你现在感觉怎样或生活中发生了什么, 闭上你的双眼微笑起来。感受一下你微笑时温暖从腹部涌上来的感觉。观察一下你舒展双眉时精神状态的转变。若你还有所犹豫,那么就站到镜子前,注意观察自己微笑时的样子,再一次体会面部表情变化时你身体的感受。若你觉得自己特别厚脸皮,不妨看着眼中的自己,微笑着说:“你真了不起!”

I believe that a smile is one of the most powerful and most valuable gifts that we, as humans, have. It embodies our ability to create and our ability to express the infinite love that is within us. Whats even more amazing is that we can share this gift with others. Have you smiled today? Keep smiling.

我觉得,微笑是我们作为人类所拥有的最富有力量、最珍贵的礼物。它代表我们进行创造以及表达我们内心无尽的爱的能力。更不可思议的是,我们还能与他人分享这件礼物。今天你微笑了吗?保持微笑吧。
