A Smile Goes a Long Way

by 

Pauline Hager

Great visual depiction of all the different applications of the SMILE. It was great to observe every situation and compare our own travels. It brought to mind my favorite quote by Anne Frank. “Happy people make others happy!” The smile is a wonderful free tool that so many forget to employ. Great story of compassion and appreciation for others. Thanks for sharing.

This wonderful tale by Pauline Hager reminds us of the power and beauty in a simple smile. She reminds us, through her travels, that smiles are all around the world—even in the worst of situations. Just reading her story has made me want to smile more and complain less, for as she writes, a smile is contagious and has the rippling effect of a pebble tossed into a pond.

Absolutely beautiful and I am so there with you! I do much the same thing for my meditation, but I've never thought of including animals and I love that idea.  . . . “

I loved this. I really do get into my garden and walk and think. I have a labyrinth and deer and a white duck. Wishing you well. -

Beautiful! . . .  It is so great to have these concrete, soothing things to think about while meditating.

Micki’s description here is so beautiful and lyrical and I relate to the spirituality coming out of such tragedy. The writing is wonderful.

Great story with a most impactful last paragraph. The story leaves me hanging, which is a good thing, of what the future may hold and wondering whether something like this can turn others into Christmas Elves.
