A cheerful heart brings a smile to your face; a sad heart makes it hard to get through the day. [Proverbs 15:13 [MSG)]

A recent study done at the University of Kansas found that smiling (even when your heart’s not in it) can lower your heart rate and mitigate stress. So smile, because a smile on your face can make for a cheerful heart.

Smile at each other. Smile at your wife, smile at your husband, smile at your children, smile at each other – it doesn’t matter who it is – and that will help you to grow up in greater love for each other. [Mother Teresa]
