DON'T FORGET TO SMILE
Author Unknown
October 11, 2009
A little girl walked to and from school daily. Though the weather that
morning was questionable and clouds were forming, she made her daily
trek to the elementary school. As the afternoon progressed, the winds
whipped up, along with thunder and lightning. The mother of the little
girl felt
concerned that her daughter would be frightened as she walked home
from school and she herself feared that the electrical storm might
harm her child.
Following the roar of thunder, lightning, like a flaming sword, would
cut through the sky. Full of concern, the mother quickly got into her
car and drove along the route to her child's school. As she did so,
she saw her little girl walking along, but at each flash of lightning,
the child would
stop, look up and smile. Another and another were to follow quickly
and with each the little girl would look at the streak of light and
smile.
When the mother's car drove up beside the child she lowered the window
and called to her, "What are you doing? Why do you keep stopping?"
The child answered, "I am trying to look pretty, God keeps taking my
picture.
May God bless you today as you face the storms that come your way.
And don't forget to SMILE!
