Research shows that children smile an average of 400 times a day, compared to the average happy adult who smiles 40-50 times a day and the average adult who smiles only 20 times a day. Why is a smiling face so very important? A smile not only offers a mood enhancement it becomes a way to spread love, compassion, and kindness, and to create a harmonious and uplifting spiritual environment.
