As I was looking at pictures of Queen Elizabeth, I noticed that, when she smiled, her smile went all the way to her eyes. Her eyes smiled too! Her smile was so sincere, you knew it was genuine. It didn't matter who she was looking at or talking to, you could see the smile in her eyes.

Do you know how important your smile is? Do you know how a single smile can lift someone's spirits? A smile can make all the difference in the world.

Have you noticed how people respond to smiles? It's hard keeping a grim look on your face when someone is smiling at you. Even the most grumpy person might be tempted to at least return a little grin.

And have you ever noticed how much better you feel when you smile? The world just seems so much brighter. And the great thing is, you can never give them all away!

"Today, give a stranger one of your smiles. It might be the only sunshine he sees all day" (quoted in P.S. I Love You, compiled by H. Jackson Brown Jr.).
