A Fresh Crop to a Cold Drink, What’s Making People Smile Around the Country Today!

Sharing smiles of everyday happiness from around the country!

A Fresh Crop to a Cold Drink, What’s Making People Smile Around the Country Today!
What happened that made you smile today? What happened that made you smile yesterday? What will happen that will make you smile tomorrow?

We all have simple moments that make us smile every day. It could be something as simple as having a delicious meal, being able to share a phone conversation with an old friend or simply being greeted with another smile in the street. A smile can turn your day around completely, it can make a sad day a happy one, and best of all, it’s always free.

Million Smiles is a campaign to share those simple, everyday moments of happiness and joy. A campaign to share a million smiles and positive stories from people around the world. It is an open Facebook community page where anybody can come and upload their photos and images along with a short caption explaining why the person in the photograph is smiling today. 

Here are some of the recent pictures:
