Today is McGuffy Reader’s Spark day. We give a quote of some positive encouragement for others. 
We were thinking of how to brighten someone’s day and thought of: 
Can you think of a better SPARK to go flyin’ on the breeze as a smile? You can only give a smile away to do any good. What happens when you smile at someone on the street? Sometimes they will look at you and turn their head away. It’s not because they don’t like you, they don’t know you. A smile from a stranger is just so different that they don’t know what to do. However, they will remember your smile for at least the rest of the day. What about the ones that smile back? These peeps are open and ready to accept your free gift. They will be more positive and pass your gift along. Yet it cost you nothing. 
Maybe don’t smile quite this happily or peeps will think you’re nuttier than a fruitcake and avoid you.
Have a positive Monday, my friends.

Shoko, you have great lines (I mean on your face – no not age lines, just the beautiful geometry of your face). And you’re right, a smile IS like a ray of sunshine, as well as saying so much about a person – or cat.
