You're Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile!!
Do what you can to smile :) as long as it's not illegal or anything...
It's been 4 years since I had a second stroke when I was 15. I was sitting at the tv with my sister after I was done with my homework. Then I went into my mom's room to tell her about a headache then I remember falling over on her bed.
Anyways, my first stroke was easier cuz I recovered mostly. But I had some left side weakness, and this time, I'm like, yeah. The part that I don't appreciate the most is that I can't talk/sing as before, because I LOVED singing, I sang all the time, but.. you know, it's better than other crap. So, smile :) because there are things in life to be HAPPY about. there are bad very bad things but there are good very good things.
I just sounded really cheesy there, didn't I...
and dont feel bad about your smle. I feel bad about my smile but like, thats just one thing. Yes there are other things to be sad about but I cant just focus on that. I have to (and you have to) focus on the things that we CAN do and are grateful for. And be yourself and not care what others think. Who cares what they're wearing on E News or Fashion Week? It's what you wear from ear to ear, and not from head to toe. That matters :) but hey, the way u dress urself can affect your self-image and stuff, so... dressing good is kind of important...? lol :P but it's your mind that wins in the end.
