Kindness and Smiles

"Let us always meet each other with a smile, for a smile is the beginning of love."
~  Mother Teresa


The other day in the car, I asked my children what they were going to do that day to show Jesus' love to other people.  Out of the silence that followed my question, one finally hazarded a reply: "Smile?" she said tentatively, more of a question than an answer.  Yes!  And so I shared Mother Teresa's quote.  It really is amazing how a smile from even a stranger can lift your spirits.  And a child's realization of a smile's impact is certain to buoy her mother's spirits, too.
