A Smile
And it was the fifth day in a row, I was seeing that man casting a smile; literally a huge smile.
SMILE? what would it bring to people? why smile at strangers? Eh? Smile: nothing just broadening your lips and throwing at others so they would throw that back on you.
I, as usual finished my last track walk and was about to leave when I saw a lady shreiking in a horible voice. She was rudely addressing a man selling balloons; "Didnt I ask you to give this ballon carefully to my son, DIDN'T I? Man you wasted away my ten Rs, GOD, DAMN YOU."
This scenario felt awkward to me, she could have just smiled and brought her son another balloon, what cost it? well nothing,
On my way to home, my friend called me, "Yumna, I couldnt make it to US visa again this time". She felt really sad at the same time angry, "OH! thats sad, don't worry maybe next time". "Yes, but a couple before me, they got it so easily...thoug it was a travelling visa and mine was more crucial one, a student visa". Really they got that easily, I asked furthur "And why is that?". "They were smiling and talking softly maybe, I didn't even greeted the officer".
Oh okay! Did smile makes that much difference, alright maybe. I held the phone and stopped my car to have a drink by a sugar cane cart. I was really thirsty but this place, it was loaded by some billion people, all pulling there way to drink. And disappointedly there was a Grid-Lock ahead.
"ONE JUICE" I snapped at that man, He handed over a glass to another. I shouted at him again "Man just one glass". He again overlooked me and handed over to someone else.
Why was he being so irritating, I was so much annoyed by this attitude. Why handing over to others? Meanwhile another lady arrived, I was there by last 10 minutes and wasn't even bothered a single second. That lady greeted "Excuse me Sir! one glass juice please", "Here you go ma'am, have a Good day". She took it smiled and went away.
OH...now I understood, but saying even a single word would go against my EGO. I drove my way back to home.
Next day was as usual, I was on the same walking track when that unknown man again casted a smile and moved on.
Today I decided to know the reason behind his smiling OUT everyday.
"Man, what is your problem? smiling you think will win my heart?'' His eyes blinked and he shone and passed such a wide smile that his white teeth and confidence were visible. "I don't know ma'am" He addressed me so politely, "I am not sure weather it wins heart but I am sure it's a nice enough expression to conquer the souls". I was still gazing him deep. He then took out a pocket mirror, asked me to see my own reflection, I did. "See ma'am the wrinkles on your forehead? You are getting uglier each day and this walk and exercise will not bring you the glow that smile will bring. Do you think these creases look nice?"
I saw myself and noticed. Man, Oh yes really I was looking ugly! eww...
But WOW! that sense was amazing, that man was amazing, his smilw was amazing.
I smiled then and silently went my way.
So that lady, I saw earlier day would have easily won a balloon free of cost by a smile, and that felt awkward to me only cause' her way of adressing was rude.
That man, I nearly met him everyday while jog. And he would always pass me a smile each time he caught my eye.
He had a pretty grand social cirlce and easy winner of so many lotteries and luck games.
I smile now, I smile each day to exercise 200 muscles of my face, I smile cause its my best lipstick, I smile cause' I still have teeth, I smile cause' it makes me win and conquer, I smile cause I glow then and spread this radiance over others.
Does smiling brings alot of difference? YES YES it does...
This man changed me, maybe this article change you...try and think but above all smile :) cause its your best medecine and for ladies a good choice of lipstick!
