ARE YOU SMILING?


"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~

  1. That is a good quotation – smiling helps a lot. But you know I think that people in the US smile a lot – and that is good, but in France for example, they don’t. If you smile at them, they think something is wrong. Also in some countries you are not supposed to smile, as it will be taken the wrong way – at least if you are a woman (middle eastern countries mostly.)

  3. Smiling helps to make us feel good and helps to encourage others to smile, too...a simple and kind gesture that costs nothing. Love this photo! :)
