Your Smile, Your Light
Posted by terrepruitt on January 9, 2019
A while back a friend of mine brought a few books into class that she was getting rid of. She said that her son goes to libraries and second-hand book stores and sometimes buys a book for her that he thinks she might like. One book he bought her was a book about yoga. And it was so hilarious that she found – tucked into its pages – a handout that I gave out in one of my yoga classes. We got a kick out of that. Kind of a small world. We spent a couple of minutes wondering what happen to the original owner of the book. Had they given up on yoga? Or had they mastered all the poses in the little book and moved on? It was funny. She had a little stack of books she was giving away and I took one. I was thinking it might have quotes or it might give me ideas of things to post about. Well, I just decided to pick it up today and I am going to quote a page from it.
“Share Your Smile
It radiates light. If reflects your inner warmth. It engenders confidence. It eases tension. It opens doors. It is contagious.”
And on the same page there is a quote from J. M. Barrie (1860-1937)
“Those who bring sunshine into the lives of others cannot keep it from themselves.”
I like both what Patrick Lindsay wrote (Make the Most of You) and the quote by J. M. Barrie. I decided to share it. I was struggling with what to post and this just made me smile so I thought I would post it and perhaps make you smile.
I am still on the Happy New Year kick. It is still new enough! Happy New Year!
