The power of a smile. 😉
Today on my usual lunch time walk into town I bought myself a punnet of strawberries which I enjoyed on my way back. I was in deep thoughts when a young passing man smiled at me which triggered several thoughts simultaneously:
a) It can’t be the water re-juveneation challenge working already? ;-)) (This morning when I looked in the mirror I had noticed nothing unsual)
b) Have I got a strawberry stuck down my front? (A quick glance found no strawbeerry or stains)
c) This must be a son of a friend who knows me. (Alas, I couldn’t place him)
A few metres on an older man passed, also smiling at me. Now I started panicking. What have I got on my face; do I have strawberry juice all around my mouth? (A quick reflex wipe). I definitely didn’t know him and by then I had abandoned the water fast re-juvenation idea completely. ;-).
Then I remembered that I had just had some lovely thoughts in my head and must have had a smile on my lips, provoking them to smile back and possibly triggering simultaneous panicking thoughts on their part. 😉
