As a result, I have learned the need to smile over things as well. Sometimes, being nice truly is better than being right. By smiling, you can keep a peaceful atmosphere and invite company. For those of us to want to keep a man, this is ever more important.

Our expressions certainly don't always reflect our real state, but we should always remember to smile more - good for us and others too..:)<br /><br /><a href="http://pichetsinparis.blogspot.com/" rel="nofollow">Pichetsin Paris</a>Denise Covey https://www.blogger.com/profile/07106490051555233439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439062163158613490.post-26268826406166756322010-07-23T01:17:15.541-06:002010-07-23T01:17:15.541-06:00I was lucky my smile did change my mans behavior t...I was lucky my smile did change my mans behavior toward me.<br /><br />Being single for 6 years after my first marriage I had plenty of time to lick my wounds and learn from my mistakes. I was too nice. He did go with another woman. <br /><br />When I married my currant husband of 25 years I was not going to repeat that too nice thing. I didn't want to be mean but I knew it was not good to let a man walk all over you. <br /><br />I would speak my mind with my currant husband and at first he got angry. I learned to keep a smile on my face even when he would not talk to me. It took his the power of his anger away. I learned to let him own his anger. <br /><br />I was scared under that smile for a long time. I acted as if. Finally he saw that I could not be manipulated with anger and he gave it up. I was not mean when I spoke my mind. I just wouldn't allow myself to be walked over. <br /><br />Unfortunately many women let men mistreat them or actually like to have men mistreat them. The "I love a bad boy" syndrome. It can create monsters. <br /><br />A smile can slay dragons. It is so powerful. <br /><br />My first husband was a mean man. My currant husband is a good man that can be mean. There is a difference. My husband is now nice a lot more than mean which I earned and love. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your story. I so agree smiling is powerful.Lynn Hahnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00344271259912233747noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5439062163158613490.post-88846016648937470372010-07-05T06:33:13.148-06:002010-07-05T06:33:13.148-06:00JoAnna.

Anyway, a smile is one of the best weapons we've got. But a good weapon. It not only changes instantly the way others look at us, it changes the way we feel about ourselves. On a bad day, smile at yourself in the mirror ....until you believe it. That works for me most every time!Delanahttp://delana-dujour.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
