A smile costs nothing but gives much. It enriches those who receive without making poorer those who give. It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. None is so rich or mighty that he cannot get along without it and none is so poor that he cannot be made rich by it. Yet a smile cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Some people are too tired to give you a smile. Give them one of yours, as none needs a smile so much as he who has no more to give.

American author Og Mandino sums it up the best:
Reach out. Share. Smile. Hug. Happiness is a perfume you cannot pour on others without getting a few drops on yourself."
Loving smiles to you !

It is more blessed to give than to receive.

Good Morning Virginia, I always receive joy and share a smile when I visit your blog. Have a delightful weekend.
It is amazing, if you are having a bad day, and someone smiles at you-how much better that makes you feel.
Hi Virginia - this is a great post. A smile costs us nothing, but can bring a great deal of happiness into someone's life.

How true! When grumpy people come in and start that way at my work, it's just not a fun feeling vs. someone coming in, greeting us [the night crew] with a great big smile! Blessings.
Peace often starts with a smile. Great post.
