"A smile doesn't cost anything, but can create many things.
It can enrich those who receive it, without impoverishing those who give.
It can happen in a flash and the memory of it can last forever.
None are so rich they can get along without it, and none so poor but are richer for its benefits.
It can create happiness in the home, foster good will in a business, and is the countersign of friends.
It can be the rest to the weary, daylight to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad, and Nature's best antidote for trouble.
Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed, or stolen, for it is something that is no earthly good to anybody till it is given away.
And if in the last-minute rush of Christmas buying some of our salespeople should be too tired to give you a smile, may we ask you to leave one of yours?
For nobody needs a smile so much as those who have more left to give!"
A department store in New York City, in recognition of the pressures its sales clerks were under during the Christmas rush, presented the readers ot its advertisements with the above homely philosophy.
As Christmas approaches let us all remember the true spirit and SMILE
Let's carry it on every day in our lives to help make our world a better place.
Try smiling at a stranger, you will be surprised how hard it is for them to not smile back!!
What a great first impression you made. Be sincere when you smile!!
Start first thing in the morning as you greet yourself in the mirror...SMILE
