One characteristic of me that I really like is being cheerful. When it comes about sharing a smile, a positive thought or just a kind word, I am always willing to. I believe it is really important to keep a positive attitude to face our daily life and also for encouraging others to see a different and much more bright view of the world. I also try to let my friends become aware of their good qualities, since I know how difficult it could be sometimes to have in mind our virtues, when it is easier to keep in mind our flaws. To be cheerful means to make little of these hardships we encounter. A cheerful person looks on the brighter, sunnier side of his surroundings, accentuates the pleasant and beautiful features of life, and smooths over the rough places in the road. The power to overlook or to smile away some of the distressing details of existence is a necessary condition of happiness, and it is one that I try to practice the most.
