I have, on the top of my bookcase, a little fat laughing buddha carved out of wood. On either side of him is a stone meditating cat and a stone meditating dog. Every time I look at my minature zen class, I have to smile... nothing is ever so bad that my laughing buddha loses his smile.

What in your life reminds you to smile?
 
A sleeping cat...

Charlie loves to sleep on his back, he covers his eyes with his paws. Gotta smile.

My children...

When they aren't making me pull my hair out.

My wife...

Always. God I got lucky.
 
My Husband and my son. I have pics of them all over my office. When I have a bad day at the office, I just look at them and realize "I can go home tonight and be happy and forget about all this shit" (at least until tomorrow! :p )

:)

My friend used to have a little Buddha for a light switch, you'd just flick his little peter, and there was Light!! ;)

I remind myself to smile, I'm a goof ball. But if ever I'm in a forgetful mood, there are usually fifty little things to make me smile, once I stop and think about them.

That gives a whole new meaning to enlightenment - I think... :D

Nothing is wrong with being a goof ball... Did you see my Cookie Monster Thread? That's one good thread... :cool:

Did I mention that I have a short memory?
 
I have a little buddha on my dashboard.

Keeps me calmer when I drive in the city.
