Anyway, when you smile when you are angry I think you release seritonin or endorphines something like that and you can almost feel them being secreted. It almost hurts at first to smile when you don't feel like it but it gets easier : )Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05713212060779298367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1282814980296803369.post-17425484677025669532008-11-05T10:13:00.000-07:002008-11-05T10:13:00.000-07:00Debbie,Smiling is often a response, but also a con...Debbie,<BR/>Smiling is often a response, but also a conscious choice!
