What would truly make this world a better place to live?

It is with a genuine love, compassion and concern that one should reach out to another. Never should they reach for personal gain or ulterior motives, but for the pure benefit of only the other.

It is for that reason I reach out, so you can feel that there is always hope, know there is always love far greater than physical love, there are human relationships outside of the ones at hand and that there is more goodness in the world, than bad. It is my pleasure to care as I do, for the smiles returned are my selfish motivation.

No need to see the smiles, but yet I can feel them or even read them. Let the smiles of today be the smile you offer to someone else in return, making this whole world better for ourselves and for our children, one person at a time.

    Michael, thanks for that. The other day when I was Blah, your comments about smiles really helped. I spent the entire next day reminding myself to smile and I felt so much better. Kimberly
