@xpax that’s my attitude too, at age 78. It is amazing how a smile can light up another person’s face, and I have always got a smile back, whether it is from complete strangers or friends, acquaintances and, of course, family.

For instance I was at a restaurant with my husband and happened to look over at a woman at the next time who looked toward me at the same time. I smiled, and immediately she smiled back. It was not fake - very genuine on both sides!
