Smile :)
Smile is the beautiful ornament ever one can wear. It looks like without smile face is incomplete. there is one saying about smile that you should at least give smile to unknown person once in a day. I have done this many times and felt why it is so important. I have given smile to those people who felt ignored by the people though they are doing very important job like the shopping mall security, watchman etc. By giving the smile they will at least feel good for one moment. You don't know their lives so you don't know that from which phase of life they are going. At job they are seeing daily many people and sometime people scold them or just ignore them due to their work profile but if you just give them smile then they will feel good and it might make them feel that they are doing good job and we respect them.
So smile can not determine what is there behind the face or reality. I love one song from movie 'Khuda Kay Liye', the lyrics of the song describes the above idea. The lyrics are,
"I face the world with a smile.. No one knows what is hiden inside..They see only happiness..They cant see the tears i' ve cried..Bandya ho bandya, bandya ho",
it describes well the idea what I mentioned. The inspiration to write this post is one of my school friend. I met this guy last week, I knew this guy since my school days. He was very calm person in school, in school he was my senior and we never had chance to interact with each other. Three year back we met in one of our common school friend's family function. It was the first time I get to know about more than his name. We exchanged the number. When I try to remember this guy that how was he in the school then all I can collect from my memory is guy with always wearing innocent smile on his face and ofcourse, noticeable good look. During this three years I got chance to know more about this guy as we never had any interactions in school so It was fun to talk about school days life with him..
Our last week's meeting was interesting, this time it was not about the school days. Being a school friend, school days' memories will be always there in our talk but this time I found something interesting about his life which I think not many people knows about him. I met the real him behind that innocent smile and I was completely shocked. He started narrating that he was just 6-7 years old when his mother, his brother and he had to left his home suddenly after his dad's death. He shared that he still remember that he was carrying just one school bag and that school bag had all his books nothing else while leaving the home. his mother was very brave women I must say as if I see him now then he is completely different, he is very strong and settled I can say as he is starting his own office in few days. To come out of all these situation where only few books were the companion and now they are having settled life is all together different scenario. One need lot of courage to do it which might everyone doesn't have it. On that day I found that this guy has struggled a lot in very small age, he might have seen what one must not deserve to see or feel in the childhood. After that meeting I can imagine his two pictures in my mind one who is wearing always smile on his face and another of very strong person who can fights again any storm with smile on his face.
The whole incident made me realize that smile is very powerful weapon to stand strongly infront of world if you don't want to let others know about ups and down of your life. It makes life easy and at least happy for a moment when you smile. Till now I was just following the saying of giving smile to uknown person without getting know to this type of realities behind those smiles, but now I understand why it is important to smile. Your smile is very small thing but for someone it may help them to forget all their pains and gives courage in their individual fights.
Keep Smiling always!
