World Smile Day: Get Yours Here
In the interest of international harmony Saturday 4th October has been designated World Smile Day. No matter what culture, or what country we are from, a friendly smile always means the same thing.
Saturday 4th October is World Smile Day. A smile is formed by flexing the muscles around the mouth and in some people this spreads to those around the eyes too. It is usually an expression of happiness and pleasure when humans do it but it can be a sign of stress.
The human smile is seen in all cultures and parts of the world and it is perhaps the only thing that really unites us and bonds us together as human beings. It is rare that a smile fails to get a friendly response. Say it with a smile, no matter what language you speak and you will communicate.
What makes you smile? Babies, animals, people you love, your pet dog, or maybe spending time on your favourite hobby. What ever the cause, make the most of it. It spreads.

What ever made this man laugh so much it wasn’t seeing himself in the mirror. Those teeth obviously aren’t causing him too many problems either.

This guy is literally creased up laughing. Do i detect a mischievous look in his eyes? This is how a real smile should look. He uses all his facial muscles. Peace man!

This naughty smile conceals some equally naughty thoughts if this lady’s eyes are anything to go by. I wonder what she’s looking at. Any guesses?

Talk about the cat that got the cream. This little fellow looks really pleased with himself. He’s really cute but I’m not quite sure that it’s wise to trust a smiling cat. They seem to adopt that smiley friendly look to lull us into a sense of false security.

I don’t know how this one got in here. This smile says it all, ‘Trust me I’m a politician!’

A picture paints a thousand words and these two are obviously sharing a joke or two. Um! Which one is the politician?

‘What do you mean you don’t get the joke? If you could see what I can see, you’d fall off your chair laughing!’
