Book: How to Get Your Smile Back By: Gillian Bridge
How to Get Your Smile Back Author: Gillian Bridge Cover: Paperback Pages: 240 Size: 14 × 20 cm
Change your outlook on life,
and get your smile back for good. Have you ever seen a sloth at the zoo? If you have, you've seen one of the calmest, most relaxed and gentlest creatures on earth, with a remarkable ability to adapt to its surroundings and a soft smile that never leaves its gentle face. It may have a great deal of life experience and wisdom we can learn from to bring the smile back into our lives for good. For example, when a mother sloth raises her young, she teaches them to love particular trees and leaves, so they grow up without having to compete for food. Isn't that the height of wisdom? There are so many lessons we can learn from this animal! Sloths could never live in an artificial, fake world like the one we live in. Each of us has helped build this crazy life of ours, with its fast pace in every activity, its endless competition and the consumerism that has almost swallowed life and everyone in it. We have become slaves to our attempts to improve ourselves and reach perfection in everything, at the expense of who we really are. But if we look at the sloth's life and how it goes about it, we can rediscover the art of living. We will become better able to adapt to our circumstances and less affected by what goes on around us, and we will begin to live and enjoy life more calmly and slowly. By following this guidance, we will learn to look at life the way we did as small children. We will let go of worrying about what we don't have, and in return gain a greater joy that quietly flows into our lives, bringing lasting brightness and happiness.
