I am happy that you shared with us, jon. It truly doesn’t hurt to smile and when someone smiles back at you, it does indeed make you feel good. And perhaps your smile was the only one they saw this day.

If I may be so bold as to steal that from both the Grateful Dead and Gina’s .sig from a few days ago… Thanks to all of the beautiful people who take the time to look up and smile at a stranger on the street instead of just shuffling by, looking at their feet. I don’t know why this is so difficult for most people to do? So today I am walking back from lunch and the first two people that I pass returned my smile. It just made me feel good so I decided to share. jon

Dear Jon: It is amazing what a smile can do, isn’t it ? Makes ya feel better too, doesn’t it ? Gina "You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you’ll discover will be wonderful. What you’ll discover will be yourself." – Alan Alda
