Naturally, we are drawn to people who smile. When someone looks sad, angry, or upset, we avoid them like the plague. When they smile, it allows us to let our guard down a little.
As kids, we used a smile to gauge whether it was safe to approach our parents about going outside to play or go to a friend's house.
Even as adults, a smile is a good indicator to see if the boss is in a good mood or not on any given day.
It lets us know whether to expect a laid-back or more stressful day. Should we ask for a raise or time off, or would it be best to wait until they are in a better mood?
I believe we would see more smiles in the world if we took the time to compliment others on their smiles. I once had a coworker with a resting face that was not very approachable.
One day after joking around with her, she smiled, and it was one of the most beautiful moments we shared. So, I complimented her smile and kindly suggested that she smile more.
From then on, when I saw her, she had a smile on her face. I saw her countenance change, and it reflected positively on her work. Rather than being nonsocial or short with customers, she blossomed like a social butterfly.
People were nicer to her and were more comfortable around her because she smiled. I even heard her receive more compliments on her smile, which gave her greater confidence to keep it up.
She had never felt beautiful or attractive until she learned to embrace her smile. And all it took was a sincere compliment from a friend.
Why Give Compliments About Smiles?
Compliments about smiles encourage us to keep on smiling. Proverbs 15:13 says, “A glad heart makes a happy face.”
A smile is the ultimate outward reflection of happiness. It can be an insight into what a person feels inside. So, your kind words can help someone accomplish that amazing feeling within.
When we see others smiling, we often believe something great has just occurred in a person’s life, they found something amusing at the moment, or they are naturally a jovial person.
However, a smile on one's exterior often hides feelings of sadness and depression within someone’s heart. We have all experienced a time when we had to smile to keep from crying and needed encouraging words to get us through hard times.
Even more contagious than the flu, a smile not only has a positive effect on the next person but, in many cases, can cause them to smile too. A smile is like a warm welcome or hug you can give someone without even touching them.
And their smile can help to brighten your day as well. Essentially, we smile when we don't even feel like it, and it touches others, and their smile, in return, blesses us and lifts our spirits too.
A smile is like making an investment. Even when you had little to put in (or little reason to smile), you reaped great dividends in return.
Many believe that a smile is the most attractive feature that any person can have. There is simply nothing in the world, in my opinion, greater than a beautiful smile.
People climb high mountain ranges and travel for hours to enjoy a gorgeous beach sunset. Yet, one of God’s most amazing handiworks is found in a simple smile.
Even when photographers take our pictures, they are trained to ask us to smile. And while people may complement the outfit that we’re wearing, they most certainly will complement our smiles.
For some of us, it is possible that we've seen someone's smile and wanted to compliment them sincerely, but we just didn't know what to say. So, this article has provided an example to help give the best compliments about someone's smile.
