		<description>I love to send cards.  It&#039;s a great way to make someone smile and is something my mother got me in the habit of doing when I was very young.  The right card can express exactly what you may be feeling, and it always makes the person&#039;s day.  Something else I like to do is go to the card shop and read the cards.  I must look real silly to others getting so emotional when I&#039;m reading.</description>

		<description>I must admit it.  I do send cards on birthdays, anniversaries, and other special days.  But I&#039;ve never thought of sending one just to say &quot;Hey, I&#039;m thinking of you.  Have a great day.&quot;  I&#039;m going to do make that a project for myself starting this week.  A card a day!  Thanks for the idea Heidi. 

And thanks for sharing the awesome video!</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve always liked the idea that we should smile often, especially to grouchy people - make them wonder what you&#039;re thinking! LOL  Thanks Heidi.  I&#039;ll be collecting smiles this week.</description>

		<description>Awesome!  When I was 14, someone described me as &quot;serious&quot;.  From that moment on I decided to smile everytime my eyes made contact with another person.  It makes me feel better, too.

Heidi, you do this for others.  YOU are great!</description>

		<description>I&#039;m a cardaholic myself, and the idea of neutralizing grouches with a big smile brings out my mischievous side combined with my goal of doing whatever I can to make the world a better, happier place.  I love it!  Thanks for the grinspiration, Heidi--and for posting this video.  I have seen it before but not in its entirety.  I appreciate that it stars one of my favorite cast members from Bones, TJ Thyne.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s still early morning in CA and I can&#039;t think of a better way to start my day! Thank you so much, Heidi, for your wonderful post and that amazing video. I&#039;m a huge believer in the power of smiling at strangers. It brightens their day and yours and connects you immediately. (Like the name of your blog.) I&#039;m passing this one on to my friends!</description>

		<description>I have long been an advocate for sending messages/cards to people to say thank you, happy birthday or just to brighten their day.  I&#039;ve done it since I was a teenager.  I don&#039;t do it as much anymore but when I remember someone&#039;s &quot;special day&quot; I drop them a card because I know when I receive them, they make me feel good and I always appreciate the sender.</description>
