IrmaJean Posted January 11, 2012 Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 …that made you smile today? For me today, it was looking at my daughter’s pants, which were suddenly up to her ankles. I smiled in wonder. My child grows fast. Time for a new wardrobe. I also smiled watching my neighbor walk his terrier down our street. He’s been walking, and/or jogging daily (though not always with a dog), for as long as I can remember, going back to when I was just a child. I admire his spirit, energy, and joy for life.Okay, so that's two.Every time I smile, my heart feels warm. Healing energy. Wishing you all some smiles today...and hopefully some moments of serenity too.Share if you’d like. Embrace your pink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrmaJean Posted January 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted January 11, 2012 I'm sorry you're hurting, Sue. I was trying to generate some positive energy. I know that isn't always possible when any of us are in a place of pain and sadness. I hope you feel better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you for sharing.I've only been up for a short time, but I already smiled today when I saw some cute photos in my blog. I hope everyone has a healing day.

Lana73 Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 My friends could not stop laughing at me when I asked them what LMAO meant. They all think that just because I have been living in this country for almost 13 years, I should have learned this kind of English long time ago. They also said that I am a fake American and that they will be contacting immigration services, which I thought was pretty funny.Hey, at least I know what Lol, IDK, Ttul stand for Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrmaJean Posted April 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 I smile when I see others spreading a little kindness to our fellow man and woman. I see it here on our site and my heart feels warm. Just taking a moment to connect with another can be quite powerful and it feels good. We give our gentle, caring parts to others and receive it back for ourselves as well. I hope everyone has a serene and healing day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueAbaloneDog Posted April 5, 2012 Report Share Posted April 5, 2012 Well my 9 year old son and me like to watch funny videos on you tube. The funny baby videos are great, they can really get you through a bad moment.My kids are funny. My 9yo still pronounces the 'th' sound with either a 'v' or an 'f' sound: "I need 'free' dollars." "Seriously Mom, I am 'finking' that you should let me play "M" games because I watched Dawn of the Dead like, 'free-fousand' times and I don't get scared at all!" My boyfriend is 53 and he stutters. Plus he makes up his own versions of words. For example: "When we were kids at camp we slept in 'lean toons.'" Or, "I eat the green vegetables because I get my chloroform from them." Or, "Stop 'hecticizing' me, witch!" I call them "Eddie-isms" and have been keeping a list of them for like 3 years.Picture a character from the Honeymooners and that's him...Now, just to think about these things made me smile, but when he called me on the phone from upstairs right as I was telling about him, THAT cracked me up.Wow, this beats talking about my depression, and it made me feel better! I was really jammed up when I got on here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
