Self-improvement.  It gives you the impression that something is wrong with you.  You look at your advertisements and see smiling faces when often smiling is the last thing you feel like doing.  That is okay.  Two days in a row we give you permission not to smile, yet we remind you that shining is your true nature.  Is this a paradox?  Not at all.  It is the evolutionary impulse of creation to want to smile.

There is feeling good and not feeling so good.  Were it not for the push and pull to smile, humans might make worse choices than they often do.  Here is an experiment for the day.  When you are faced with a choice, make a preliminary one.  Then smile and choose again.  Should you see a difference, and we dare say you will find it quite miraculous, you will understand even more how very close is the soul, the aspect of you that is smiling, knowing that ultimately, at a deeper level, all is well.

You are so very loved.
