Learn to Smile

The Power of a Smile
My dear child, Let this year bring you the power to smile in
all circumstances. For, a smile acts upon difficulties as the
sun upon the clouds — it disperses them.
With my love and blessings.
CWM 16: 216

When you smile, it makes the sun shine in my heart.

Rise above, into the Light, where everything can be seen
with a calm, eternal smile — there you will be in my constant
and tender company.
The Mother: Conversation with a disciple, May 1962

A smile acts upon difficulties as the sun upon clouds — it
disperses them.

I don't think that one can ever smile too much. Someone
who knows how to smile in all circumstances is very close
to true equality of soul.
CWM 14: 177

Generally speaking, man is an animal who takes himself
terribly seriously. To know how to smile at oneself in all
circumstances, to smile at one's sorrows and disillusions,
ambitions and sufferings, indignation and revolt — what a
powerful weapon with which to overcome oneself!
