One of Mr. Brown podcast was on 4 million smiles. Only then did I realise it was part of the effort for IMF event. Another classic e.g. that shows how W.O.L.S I can be.
Anyway something in the podcast invoke my thinkin.
First you smile,
Then you will be happy.
OR
First you must be happy,
Then you can smile.
The chicken-egg scenario I guess. But Happiness is something that we look for, and something that always eludes us. Sometimes the very happiness we are chasing is at our feet. But how many of us are blind to Miss Happiness?
And if we are not happy, how do we smile? Or can we really smile first and develop the feeling later on?
Remember the photographer who always ask you to SMILE, then flash and your photo is taken. Sometimes he say SMILE till i can see your white teeth. Sometimes he say don't SMILE too wide. Sometimes he say SMILE you are on candid camera. But has he ever say Be Happy! Smile!
Maybe Smile and Being Happy can really be 2 separate events...

Hmm this sounds like a combination of a psychological state with a physiological reaction. Interesting question and in my opinion, both can either be a correlation or have a cause and effect relationship, the mode of which depends very much on the particular situation itself. =)
