Smile at the doctor :-)

My doctor asked me how many people do you see smiling, in a day ? I was puzzled - I started counting 1, 2, ... . Then he said, "Everybody who comes to me, has a problem, & is not happy with it. Nobody smiles around me. If I ever get a smile, I find that day rewarding and worth living".
It was such a simple thing, which we rarely think of ! I decided since then, ever to greet every doctor I meet, so as to make one's day brighter, to let them enjoy their days. Next time when you go to a doctor, smile with her / him, share a joke & make your problems seem smaller & doctor's job easier ! Doctors also need compassion & empathy
Any comments ?
