The author of a humor book writes: Dr. John Diamond believes that smiling, or even looking at a smile, gives us what he calls “life energy”. In his book, Diamond states that smiling helps strengthen the thymus gland, an important contributor to a healthy immune system, because the zygomaticus major (our smile muscles) and the thymus are closely linked.

A Song from my past
When you're smiling; when you're smiling
The whole world smiles with you
When you're laughing, when you're laughing,
The sun comes smiling through.
But when you're crying.... you bring on the rain,
So stop your frowning....be happy again,
Cause when you're smiling...keep on smiling
The whole world smiles with you.
