“A Smile Must Be The Best Little Exercise Of The Body” – Frank A Hilario


Today, Sunday, 02 Oct 2022 (Manila), on Facebook I see Nelson Posadas’ sharing above. The original tag reads: “Smiling Cures. Holding a smile for 30 seconds, even if you’re not happy, tricks the brain out of depression and boosts the immune system to cure the body of Disease…”

Try it now – I did, and I am happier. Smile!

Invajy (Mr Posada’s source) has “150 Smile Quotes About Smiling To Put [A] Smile On Your Face” (30 Sept 2022). S/He says:

[A] smile is extremely powerful. Just remember when you come back from work with [off-mood], how your little one’s smile refreshes you and you forget about all other things. And, when you put a smile on your face in reciprocation, it brings a new positivity in the surrounding environment. Smiling reduces stress that your mind, body or soul [feels]. Smiling has countless positive effects on us. It stimulates the brain, awakens the positive vibes, makes you come across as friendly, and brings happiness to the surrounding people. Whether you say “good morning” to a stranger you pass [by] in the mall or wave hand towards your neighbor while you’re on [a] morning walk, adding a… smile to [the] simple [act] of kindness can make someone’s day.

I selected these quotes from Yvajy’s collection:

“A smile is the best makeup any girl can wear.” ~ Marilyn Monroe

“A smile is an instant facelift and an instant mood lift.” ~ Christie Brinkley

“Let us always meet each other with a smile, for the smile is the beginning of love.” ~ Mother Teresa

“Smile more. Smiling can make you and others happy.” ~ Roy T Bennett

“It only takes a split second to smile and forget, yet to someone [who] needed it, it can last a lifetime.” ~ Steve Maraboli

“What sunshine is to flowers, smiles are to humanity. These are but trifles, to be sure; but scattered along life’s pathway, the good they do is inconceivable.” ~ Joseph Addison

“A smile is a curve that sets everything straight.” ~ Phyllis Diller

“[A] smile is [a] magnet; it attracts happiness towards it.” ~ Invajy

“It takes a lot of energy to be negative. You have to work at it. But smiling is painless. I’d rather spend my energy smiling.” ~ Eric Davis

“Life is like a mirror. Smile at it and it smiles back at you.” ~ Peace Pilgrim

“Smile in the mirror. Do that every morning and you’ll start to see a big difference in your life.” ~ Yoko Ono

Try smiling now. You’ll be happier. Promise!@517

“Leocadio Sebastian Is A Good Man – Why Do You Tie A Good Man Down?” – Asking For A Friend!” – Frank A Hilario

For all the bad things people have said of Leocadio “Leo” Sebastian , resigned Undersecretary for Operations of the Philippine Department of Agriculture (DA), I am not mad, just sad; those people are the ones guilty – of judging without evidence at hand. Very much interested in Leo’s leadership for further agricultural development of my country, and an alumnus of UP Los Baños myself, I would like to be counted as a supporter of Leo as an honorable man. Here’s my short list on Leo: Leocadio Sotor Sebastian BS Agriculture and MS Genetics, UP Los Baños PhD Plant Breeding & Genetics, Cornell University Executive Director, PhilRice Regional Director for Asia Pacific, Bioversity International Awards: Ten Outstanding Young Men (TOYM) PCAARRD Award for Research Management (Pantas) JICA Presidential Award, and “Medal for Contribution to the Cause of Agriculture and Rural Development” (Vietnam) awarded by the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development of Vietnam on 26 Nov

Knorr Of Big Business Unilever Thinks Big Business Regenerative Agriculture – My Tiny Country PH Also Should!

Image
“Knorr’s plan for 50 regenerative agriculture projects is predicted to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and water use by an estimated 30% while improving biodiversity, soil health and livelihoods.” That is regenerative agriculture (RA) news by Julian Cirineo (05 Nov 2021, “Unilever Wants To Rethink How Farms Work To Secure Food And Resources For The Future,” Rappler , rappler.com ). Note: 50 (not 5 only) RA projects to improve greenhouse gas emissions (GHGs) and water use by 30% – plus improving biodiversity, soil health and livelihoods. Note the last 7 words in the above paragraph. How can RA improve biodiversity? RA requires that the farmer practices multiculture (a few or many crops grown at the same time in the same place), where monoculture (such as rice-only or corn-only) is the practice – the biodiversity improves crop health because of the ensuing balance of nature, such as some organisms feed on other organisms that would otherwise become pests or cause diseases. RA is your

Ma'am Leni, Angat Buhay, Remembering Adam & Eve: Here Is How The Females Can Show The Males How To Take Very Good Care Of Their Garden Of Eden!

Image
The males of the species have wreaked havoc on this, our Garden of Eden that the Angel called “Climate Change” is telling us: “Get out! Get out!” (“Garden of Eden” image from Adobe Stock, stock.adobe.com ) We have poisoned the soils of the Garden of Eden so much that greenhouse gases (GHGs) are generated & contribute much to climate change – and since we don’t want to stop poisoning the Garden, the Angel of Climate Change is telling us: “Out! Out!” The intelligent response is shown in the lower image above: “We will not move on. We will MOVE FORWARD. Angat Buhay.” In this case, the Females have been thinking much better than the Males! (“We will move” image from Facebook, facebook.com , “Leni” image frm Facebook, facebook.com ) We cannot live outside of the Garden of Eden – we have to learn to live in it. And so we have to change our modern agriculture to “Garden-of-Eden Agriculture” – we have to move forward and let the natural forces work! I must blame the males, all those Ad
