one hit wonder

  so i started this blog a couple days ago and it occured to me that maybe my first post would be the only great thing i had to post about! what if i am a one hit wonder blogger?? i wish i could just drive around and listen to music because that is when i get my little epiphanies. unfortunately gas prices are astronomical and i cant afford to drive aimlessly around town just to think.
  im still trying to figure out this whole blogging thing also. i dont know if im supposed to have a certain theme that i have to talk about. maybe i should have named my blog randomness! lol but i like the title Smiles are Contagious because its so true. if you smile at one person than they smile at another person, and than they smile at another person and so on and pretty soon that first smile is the reason for maybe 100 other smiles. isnt that amazing?
  well this is my uninteresting post for this blog that im posting just to post. hopefully ill have an epiphany soon that i like enough to post about. i just have so much randomness floating around in my head right now. goodnight and remember to smile because you never know whose life you will change today. : )

Smile!

yay i started a blog! i decided my first post would be what i just posted in my Notes on Facebook.

so i think alot when im driving and today while i was driving i was thinking something that i just had to share. so today at work i remembered that tomorrow is my one year at CVS and when i mentioned this to the lead tech she said "oh that means i get to give you your year review!" i know i shouldnt worry since everytime i work with Tabitha (the lead tech) she always mentions how i make her smile (plus she told me i had nothing to worry about lol). im also called Sunshine by Jodie (who is the spice of CVS lol) bc i guess i brighten her day whenever i work with her.
  now thinking about this later on i realize it makes me happy knowing i make someone smile by just being the happy loving person that i try to be. it made me wonder how many other people, that know me (or dont know me), smile because of me. i actually wonder this a lot because i strive to make as many people smile as i can because just one smile can brighten a persons life. as Christians we strive to spread God's love to everyone and im trying to do that one smile at a time. you never know when a smile at a stranger could stop them from doing something that could harm them or someone else.
  have you heard of To Write Love on Your Arm Day? its when people write love on their arms to show people who are going through depression, suicidal thoughts, or anything like that that they are loved. i love this day but i think having a smile on your face for everyone everyday would also show those people that they are loved.
  tomorrow (techinically today) also happens to be Friend day at LifePoint Church where we show our love to our friends and strangers by inviting them to a place where they can learn that no matter what has happened in their past, there is a God who loves them for who they are. a god who is smiling at everybody and hoping that they will eventually see how much love is coming from that smile towards them. im trying to help some people see God's love by being a smiling loving person to everyone.
(does this make sense to people? or am i just crazy weird? lol) so how often do u smile at strangers? how often do u try and show God's love through your actions? i hope this makes you think or makes you smile. :) i'm cool with either! lol
well i should probably get to sleep. Goodnight and remember SMILE GOD LOVES YOU!!!!!
