The Power In The Double "S": Smile and Silence

in #esteem6 years ago

A good smile calms a raging storm and silence prevents contentions.

Nothing is attractive as a smile coming from the heart. It is contagious! It is captivating!

Smile is one thing you must adopt if you want to build a pleasing personality for yourself. It increases your chances of being liked by other people. Although, not all smiles. Fake smiles repels, they send out negative energy. I could be wrong, but I strongly believe fake smiles can easily be detected by the mind. Even when we really don't know it is fake, something in us perceive the negative energy coming from such smile.

However, a pleasing smile coming straight from the heart often releases positive vibes into the atmosphere. It is powerful enough to calm anger, settle disputes, even send sorrows and sadness away. But that's not all. Smile and laughter has a lot of health, psychological and beauty benefits attached to it , benefits which will make you consider taking it seriously.

Here are some of the benefits attached to a beautiful smile.

  • Smiling (or laughing) releases endorphins in your brains which makes you feel happier, relieve stress, anxiety and pains.

  • Smiling gives you a more attractive personality.

  • It makes you look more beautiful.

  • It reduces the symptoms of aging caused by stress, anxiety and anger.

  • Smiling boosts your immune system. A positive mind boosts the effectiveness of the antibodies that fight diseases.

  • It reduces the risk of heart related diseases.

More importantly, your smile could place a smile on another person's face,one which would mean the world to that person. A lot of people are facing different challenges and they need comfort or a way to ease off their sorrows. Your smile could be all they needed to feel better at that moment.

Generally, a hearty smile (laugh) makes you a happier person, and studies have shown that happy people are healthier and more attractive.

Now, let's talk about Silence

Silence is a powerful tool that can be used for averting problems.

Just like the popular saying, "it takes two to have a fight". Silence does not make you weak. It does not make you foolish. Silence is for the brave. It is for the wise. It takes bravery to be silent when we are being pushed to snap back. Wise people know that it is not everything that is supposed to be said.

Silence keeps you in charge and in control of yourself and the situation on ground. Whenever someone is provoking you to speak, or you are angry, try as hard as possible to remain silent because succumbing to speak, means you are submitting your willpower to someone or something else.

Silence and Smile make you healthier, more attractive, more successful and powerful. With these two, you can heal souls and stop storms.

Hopefully, I hope what I wrote will help someone be a better person.
