  1. Oh, a smile costs nothing and means the world to whom you give it. Many thanks for all those marvellous thoughts :-).

    I smile in the car all the time like a loony. I am thinking, you know? Goodness knows what I look like to the other drivers - grinning away like that! :D

  6. Great post! I am a smiler - it is interesting what a powerful effect a smile has on others! If I can brighten someone elses day, it makes my day just a little brighter. I often take on the challenge of making "non-smilers" smile - it becomes a game for me! Once I get them to smile, I try to make them laugh!
    Life is short - don't go through it grumpily!

  9. It's so easy to improve someone else's day with a smile. I notice that younger people don't smile in return. Why is that? Are they giving something up if they do. I don't get it, but I do think it's part of that generation.

  10. I love to smile at people and I'm a big "Excuse me" kind of gal in the grocery store when I have to pass in front of them when they're looking for something for a LONG time.

  12. I learned a song when I was little and in primary it goes like this.

    If you chance to meet a frown
    Do not let it stay
    Quickly turn it upside down
    And smile that frown away!

    When we were pouty my mama would sing this to us.
    Smiles and giggles.

  29. There is so much truth to that saying.
    There are so many times that my day is going so wrong and just a smile from a stranger sticks in the back of my head to help me along in my day. :)

  31. Hi Reggi Girl,
    It's been a long time since I have left a message to you. But I enjoy each and every post. I love giving smiles away. It seems like such a small thing but when someone smiles at me I always feel like I just won the lottery. I hope mine do the same for another.
    Hugs,
    June
