Monday Storytelling: I smile and my worries go

Sometimes I can get so serious. Sometimes I can get so focused on myself and my goals. That’s just how I get sometimes. However, I am also a very joyful, loving, and energetic person.

Lately I’ve been on the serious side. I decided to share my song I Smile because I needed to remember to enjoy life again.

One day at daily mass, the priest shared something very simple. He said, “Why not smile more?” At that time, I was  being so serious again in life and struggling because of it. I really needed to hear that.

I practiced smiling for the rest of that week and the following week. The result…I felt great! I’ve felt better than I’ve ever felt.

Now there are those times that we just go through some rough times, but there are those times where it’s time to bring some sunshine in again. This is that time for me. So I’m singing this song again and practicing smiling.

Lyrics:

I smile and my worries
I smile and my worries go

I am prone to see the the darkness in my life
I don’t know why I go deep in my own life
But I know when I smile I light up

There’s so much to see around this big world
Happiness and joy can be found if you look
And I know when I smile I can see

It’s interesting how life can be so much sweeter when we remember to smile. =)

My question to you is:

Do you have any simple things you do that change your mood for the better?

Do share if you have any. We all know we can always use any simple ideas to help us feel better. =)

I hope you have a great week!

You Belong

Today I feel like I’ve been found
A miracle it is to be
Of all the times I’ve felt so lost
Today I feel I’ve found my home

I am loved
I belong
I am treasure found

I am whole
I know who I am

My life begins, I journey on
To share the joy I have in me
My mission is to free your hearts
How magical your life can be

You are loved
You belong
You are treasure found

You’ll be whole
You’ll know who you are

You have strength inside
No more need to hide
Share your beauty with the world

Share your one true voice
You have something to say

You are loved
You belong
You are treasure found

You are whole
You know who you are*

Rainbow = A promise you’ll be okay

Born again in this new life
A brand new mind
A brand new start
A fresh way
To start the day

Rainbow in the distant sky
Red, blue, yellow, purple stripes
A promise
You’ll be okay

Driving down the highway
Off to work like any old day
A friendship
Comes out to play

Skipping up my snowy stairs
A phone call from the sunny seas
My momma called to say hey

Born again in this new life
A brand new mind
A brand new start
A fresh way
To start the day

Rainbow in the distant sky
Red, blue, yellow, purple stripes
A promise
You’ll be okay
