“A warm smile is the universal language of kindness” William Arthur Ward<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I long to resume my pre-mask, pre-distance life and to celebrate this sense of freedom that has come with the vaccine! Most of all, to exchange a smile because it doesn’t matter what language you speak, all of us can relate to a smile. Smiles help develop warm and loving relationships at all ages, and smiling is a health enhancer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gradually we will ease our way back to a mask-free, distance-free existence where the spread of a smile will once again expose us to the warmth of human connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
