There is a story they tell of two dogs.
Both at separate times walk into the same room.
Once comes out wagging his tail while the other comes out growling.
A woman watching this goes into the room to see what could possible make one dog so happy and the other so mad. To her surprise she finds a room filled with mirrors. The happy dog found a thousand happy dogs looking back at him while the angry dog saw only angry dogs growling back at him.
What you see in the world around you is a reflection of who you are.
Ouch...made me stop and think.
I'm I a smiler or am I a growler?
I've heard this saying before...
Smile at the world and the world smiles back!

Let a smile be your umbrella!
I like this one too...

Be a smiler, not a growler!
Smile and be Happy!
I think I saved the Patsy Clairmont one for future use...but, then again I save so many that I have to wind up deleting a lot of them. Love these quotes and pretty pictures. HOPE you have a HAPPY day, sweet Friend.
ReplyDeleteI am so guilty of that very thing. I save things I like then delete them when I clean out my picture folder.

I hope I am a smiler! Dont like grouches at all. Hope the upcoming weekend is good for you.
ReplyDeleteAmen friend!!! You already know my story, I prefer to smile, even though I might not really be feeling it, smiles, wink.
ReplyDeleteHave a beautiful day, friend.
Och! I may be both at times. I do need to remember this when I get upset about something, not to let it make me a growler!
