Upside down frown

I hate hiccups, and the gag reflex, and even the way that when you touch something hot your body automatically recoils. I feel so out of control when my body chooses to do something of its own accord. I guess alot of times this is for our benefit. I am glad that we do not have to concentrate on breathing at all times. But I discovered the other day a new involuntary reflex that I have. Smiling!
It struck me at a time when I saw a group of Hispanic Orphans tackling their group leader. The leader was overwhelmed and taken down by this group of kids laughing their heads off. All of a sudden and without meaning to, the corners of my mouth began to lift. I swear they were up near my eyebrows in one of the biggest and most genuine smiles that I have ever worn. I have noticed this happening with increasing frequency. It seems that I have so much to be happy about. I could say, "Smile, try it out". But instead, don't try it. Just let it happen, and be surprised.
