lens-artists: this made me smile

An authentic smile … arouses an authentic feeling of freshness, and I think the smile belongs only to human beings.~ Dalai Lama

If we want those smiles, we must create the reasons that make them appear. ~ Dalai Lama

I love smiles, and my wish is to see more smiles, real smiles …~ Dalai Lama

Leya has invited bloggers to “share something that made us smile, made You smile – and make the world smile with us! Old or new smiles, big or small, we welcome them all!”

A smile awakens a smile. A frown returns a frown.
