I believe the phrase “smile is treasure”. My friend taught me when I was a junior high school student. At the time, I had many worries about my records of studies, human relations and so on. I can overcome these difficulties in my impressionable girlhood thanks to the phrase because I did not want to give up it. I lose heart sometimes, but I had remembered the words when I experienced many difficulties in my life.
First,I experienced great east Japan earthquake. We did not use electricity, so we could not watch TV, could not make a plate, and could not use an electric heater. Moreover we could not buy food because many people bought many goods and they ran out of goods. In the other hand, the business world of entertainment tried to cheer them up by music and a comic dialogue. They are criticized because people in a stricken area felt bad. However, singers and comedians continued to do in order to cheer people up by the power of them. They surely made victims smiling. After that victims could overcome with smiling. This is how they considered it in a positive light.
It was hard for me when I heard that acquaintances and friends of my friends died and remembered the earthquake. However, I deeply appreciated that I can live at the moment and try to think positively. After that we can be smiling naturally. It is not easy, but we need to break away from bad state.
Second, I am consulted by some friends about their love, their records of studies and their human relations. We try to solve their own problems, but we can not think positively and they have a vicious circle. At that time, I advised simply. It is easy thinking, but they think so much and they can not see simple things. As I say that smile is treasure, they smile. This is how they can think positively with smiling.
In conclusion, it is important to smile. As we smile, we can see what we could not see. That is to say, we can solve the problems that could not solve. It is because we can think things simply and positively. When someone is smiling, other people is smiling. Smile produce some smiles. It is lovely things. If I run up against a difficulty, I try to challenge the problems with smiling. Then I would give a positive effect.
