Children make me smile. And my crazy overgrown puppy

I like both, too - children and puppies. But I tend to not like both as they get older, haha.

We certainly have many reasons to smile; probably more than we think we have.

How true, and for me who was a very serious person, i am learning to more now. The good part is i am not often contented to just smile, but can giggle at the littlest things=)). Thanks for sharing ur priceless joys.

Yes, even the not so pretty ones dressed or clothed in their best. Sometimes i get to ride w/ ppl i do not know in jeepneys here, and i like to observe the little ones, sometimes grumpy in the heat or just happy or contented abt their ride or whatever. Once i sat beside a mom? w/ a restless child just before we left the jeepney stop, and the young boy was clearly not comfortable. Rummaging thru my bag, i found a little something to distract him, and he quietly dealt w/ his situation and was soon sleeping during the ride.

And here, another encounter w/ a sick boy at the laboratory where 2 young men sat beside each other. My son, who is older (a teen) was also needing some blood extraction, and the boy was crying and distressed. I did not smile because it amused me, but in a way thought i could understand what he was going thru and wanted to comfort him, and said, Look at Kuya (older brother) here, it is quick-- and he is so brave! Not sure if that was very helpful, but i thought it at least distracted him a bit from the needle. Wc made me happy even in a little way..

playing my violin

Despite how bad our situations may seem or how cruel this world can be, we can always find reasons to smile and be happy.

The link below will show you one of the few things I do here in China that gives me priceless joy:

Children make me smile, too. They're adorable.
And puppies are cute.

About an hour ago I fast-walked 1.1 mi to the grocery store in the 91° heat and then back home again with a backpack full of groceries. It's pretty much a steep incline all the way home. I drank over 32 oz of water up & back (refilled my bottle at the store). Hiking in the heat makes me smile. And sweat. But mostly smile.

While I was at the grocery, they were giving free blood pressure and blood sugar tests to the shoppers. I took the tests and everything was normal range. I only did it because they were giving out free chocolate nutrition bars to those who took the tests. That made me smile, too.
