Longer / Smile
This week I notice the days are getting just a bit longer, with the morning light arriving just a bit sooner. That has to be a good thing, come on spring. Sure, in this part of the world there will be more storms and cold yet, but with longer days and more sunshine, the storms will disappear faster.
The other good thing for today - people who smile to you. No, I don't mean the ones that you are in contact with, but the ones you meet on the street, or in the mall, or in the grocery store, etc. People you don't know and probably will never meet. Just in passing their eyes smile, with a friendly expression. Today many look at you with ignorance, fear or disgust. But if you watch carefully, there are those strangers who have that honest smile in their eyes.
Smile back, for that is something that can't be bought, can't be faked...it is genuine!
