I am 33 years old but my heart is young. Maybe because I became a mother at 23 years old that I had missed out on those years when I should be enjoying myself and building my dreams. But life hits you hard especially when you are someone like me who gave up all too suddenly because reality was not kind and I didn't have the courage back then to stand up for what I want. I've always dreamed of becoming a vocalist of a rock band but I didn't have the voice for it. But what I do have now is the voice to give words of kindness, to sing to people who might need cheering up, and the voice to speak out what was on my mind.
So for today, I bring you Charlie Chaplin's Smile. Through our heartache and sadness, many of us had faked a smile. It is our way of coping and sometimes our way of reassuring others so they won't have to share in that pain. However, I'd like to think that a smile is a sign of strength that we still have within us and because we care of others that we give away what little happiness we still have. Smile is not just an accessory. It should be our way of life to smile at the challenges we face and at the people who wants to bring you down. A smile gives a lasting impression. Smile to yourself in the mirror every morning and start the day cheering yourself on. Be your own biggest fan!
So from today on, I want to live life and become ageless, meaning that I don't need to care about my age to live life to the fullest. Age is just a number and should not limit us to reach our happiness. I hope you like my singing. If you'd like to request a song, please comment below. If I'm not familiar with it, I will learn it. Cheers!
