something about SUCCESS

Last night, Tess and I talked about SUCCESS in our lessons. I was amazed by her answer on the question, " What does success mean to you?; because, it made me see how beautiful she is inside and out?

In the topic, many important things were mentioned for us to measure whether we're successful or not; as well as, for us to choose which is the most and the least important, e.g., a good love life, friends and fun, a happy family life, plenty money, a nice home, a successful career, something else.

Surprisingly, Tess and I had the same meaning of success and we had the same choice for the most and the least important things. For us, a good love life, friends and fun, a happy family life, a nice home and a successful career are very important. On the other hand, plenty of money is less important.

When I asked Tess to add more things which she considered as very important, she answered A HAPPY MARRIAGE. I was surprised. I didn't expect that a single woman like her would start to think on the importance of a HAPPY MARRIAGE...[well, I wish you luck, Tess. May you have a happy marriage when you get married one day.].

Furthermore, Tess said that a GOOD FEELING was one of the most important things to consider in success. For her, if a person feels good each day, he/she's successful. In this area, I definitely agreed with her. I told her that I also considered myself as successful if I felt good each day, that is, my heart is free from guilt, remorse and any bad feelings.

In the end, we've known the reason why we always smile and laugh. It's all because our hearts are free from any bad feelings. Then, we congratulated each other for it before the lesson ended. As usual, we smiled as we bid goodbye.

At this point in my life, I consider myself as successful. I may not have plenty of money but I almost have everything that makes me SMILE before I sleep at night and as I wake up in the morning. Thanks, God!

" Everyone knows the importance of a SMILE. Smiles are instinctive, a universal sign of friendliness that even newborns recognize. An attractive smile goes a long way in getting you what you land a job, and find love."



“A smile costs nothing, but gives much. It enriches those who receive, without making poorer those who give. It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich or mighty that he can get along without it, and none is so poor but that he can be made rich by it. A smile creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in business, and is the countersign of friendship. It brings rest to the weary, cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and is nature’s best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Some people are too tired to give you a smile. Give them one of yours, as non needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.”


-- Believed to be of the writings of Samson Raphael Hirsch


What is a Smile? A “Smile” is – (1) a facial expression in which the eyes brighten and the corners of the mouth curve slightly upward and which expresses amusement and pleasure; (2) a pleasant and encouraging appearance.


-- Websters 9th Collegiate Dictionary



Smile! It’s Contagious
Smiling is contagious, you can catch it like the flu,When someone smiled at me today, I started smiling too.
I passed around the corner, and someone saw my grin, When he smiled I realized, I’d passed it on to him.
I thought about that smile, the realized its worth,A single smile, just like mine, could travel around the earth.
So, if you feel a smile begin, don’t leave it undetected – Let’s start the epidemic quick and get the world infected!!!

wearing a SMILE

I started living independently since 12. I graduated high school and college through my own effort. Living independently at a very young age wasn't easy. I had to work & study hard, take care of myself and stop myself from crying every time I was sad, afraid and sick. Well, I didn't have any regrets of choosing to live individually because it taught me many things..e.g, the importance of money, job, life etc. Moreover, it will help me a lot when I have a family of my own.


As far as I could remember, I always wore a smile every time I was in a difficult situation, sad & missed my family. When I applied for a job I still had the SMILE as my best weapon, specifically when I got nervous during the interview, when I faced the interviewer, etc.. Smiling has been a great help to me since then. Without it, I might not become a teacher.


At present, I'm still wearing a smile. I wear a smile to my students, colleagues, family, friends, acquaintance, neighbors and even to strangers. In short, I wear my smile to everyone.


One more thing, I believe that I'm pretty when I smile...hehehe. Thus, if you want to feel & look pretty/handsome, prettier/ more handsome than someone else or the prettiest/the most handsome person in the world - SMILE!


Let's SMILE everyone!
