Smile....

was telling my dearest class about smiling.. when they commented that it was the third time they were greeting me for the day. Told them.. greeting is good.. since we wish others 'good' ... juz like smiling... it makes one's own day better... simply saying positive things.. or smiling.. (since there is apparently some physiologically effect... yada yada)...

it did not occur to me tt.. i do smile? at least, i was pleasantly surprised n encouraged when TS who has been my 'big sister' in this school told me that she's encouraged by my smiles... .. cos noeing tt sometimes deep within, i might not be all well.. but yet.. i still smile to others.. and my smiles brightened up her day.. esp when she's going thro a lower patch...

i was a little surprised yest when she revealed to me tt she was affected by students comments (just as she was the one who advised me earlier last week not to be unnecessarily affected by students' comments). i guess in tis line, or in life in general, no one, no matter how mature is totally immune to these.. and we all have to take turns to pat each other on the back and say 'hey, you are doing just fine!'

i'm glad my smile brightened up her day. din noe i smile.. tt much?

i'm still growing... going thro growing pains.. learning... maturing.... but i'm thankful tt i'm growing.. and tt He is the One carrying me thro...
