I had a slightly annoying occurrence take place this morning. It was certainly nothing tragic; indeed, it was more of an irritation and inconvenience than anything else…but it could have been easily avoided, so it wasn’t a really great way to start the day.
After I returned home from the above-mentioned occurrence (trying not to be peeved but still feeling a little irked), I flipped through my emails – and saw that a friend sent me a little something to help me smile:
I love this. I love the spirit of the photo; but I also love that my friend thought of me when he saw this image. And I especially love that he took the time to note this picture, and send it my way. And of course I love that a few simple scribbles, posted who-knows-where, by god-only-knows-who, traveled through tubes and wires and across space and time and ether to find their way to me, and to make me smile.
Hopefully I get to return that favor tonight, and to keep the chain going…
Talk about turning a day around. :)

How nice – I love this!
Thanks Barb! I agree; my friend is very nice – as is the photo. :)
I love that . . . Take A Smile! Here . . . have another on me: :)
Your comment made me laugh out loud! (“Here, have another on me.”) Exactly! Love it. You made this image even more wonderful to me. :)
I love that your friend thought of you when he saw this and sent it to you. : -)
Me too! I was (and still am) truly touched.
That picture definitely screams you and your blog! :)
Thanks Sharon! How can a person help but smile? :)
I like this one a lot :D
I’m glad! :)
I like that two people have actually taken a smile. Imagine taking one, slipping it into your purse and having it smiling back at you everytime you go in there :-D
I also love that a few smiles had already been taken. How cool it would be to have a little grin peeking up at you at various points in the day! A wonderful idea. :)
(It reminds me a bit of the “Free Hugs” people – only a bit more subtle, and therefore perhaps a bit more ‘possible’ for some people…) [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vr3x_RRJdd4&playnext=1&list=PL31A99892D5AF7ED9]
I absolutely love this! :) I hung up a similar poster I made with compliments instead of smiles on our community mailbox a few weeks ago and was totally stoked when I went back a week later and found that all but one compliment were gone. You gotta love free happiness!
Lexy, that’s a great idea, too! Love it. :) Thanks for spreading joy and happiness; and thank you for subscribing to this blog! I really appreciate that, too. :)
