Scott Payne at Sales Junkie.net recently did a post on the value of a “Smile On The Phone”.
That reminded me of the impact of your smiling, on both you and the people around you.
This is best illustrated with one of my favourite poems:
Smile Virus - By Russel H. Conwell
Smiling is infectious, you catch it like the flu.
When someone smiled at me today, I started smiling, too.
I passed around the corner and someone saw my grin
when he smiled, I realized I’d passed it on to him!
I thought about that smile and then realized its worth,
a single smile, just like mine, could travel round the earth.
So, if you feel a smile begin, don’t leave it undetected,
let’s start an epidemic quick, and get the world infected!

The power of a smile is unrealized until it happens to you. I try to smile at everyone I meet. It is amazing but those who have a sour face suddenly change. Good poem about smiles.

I read that to my wife and kids. It made all of us smile.
