Welcome back to this weekly (as opposed to weakly) attempt to “Occupy the Blog-o-Sphere” each Thursday. I offer this hopefully uplifting message to brighten your day and bring something buoyant into your life. As you move through your day with a renewed outlook, may you pass it along.
The shortest distance between two people is a smile.

I was thinking about wrinkles and how I’d rather get them from smiling not from frowning. I hope you agree. If not, stop here. But if you want to risk a few facial creases of the happy variety and lighten up the internal and external atmosphere where ever you are, take a look at the pictures I nabbed from Google Images.
Here’s to the smiles that hopefully bring us closer together…
Were the wrinkles worth it?

LOL! I have to agree with those sentiments..the only thing I DON’T like are the lines that I have from ” gritting my teeth”.

I’m proud of all of my laugh lines–I suppose I’m even proud of my worry lines. I earned them all! 🙂

Happy wrinkles all over my face! Thanks for adding more 🙂

Oh, good luck with your appointment, Izzy. I’ll be thinking good and positive thoughts…

My dog Scrappy smiles at me every day–he as the cutest little toothy smile that he only flashes when I know he’s in a good mood. Animals definitely smile. 🙂 And remember, humans are animals, too!

Who knew we’d be celebrating more wrinkles! 🙂

I’ll happily add to my laugh lines with you cheery posts. What a blessed treat. I get the feeling – you enjoy always. T

My sister says animals can’t smile. I’ll have to send her a link to this marvelous collection. Thanks!

Heehee … SUPER BIG SMILE on my face at this hour of the night or morning (3:30 am). Thanks for a smile, especially, tonight. A little nervous about an MD app’t tomorrow. A smile can help a frazzle fo away. Thanks, Lorna.

Good reminder to use animation sparingly…I’m glad you were greeted with both smiles and stillness today.
Sep 06, 2012 @ 16:39:48
Me too (as I was selecting which pics to put up). This is so much fun!
Sep 06, 2012 @ 16:38:34
Aw. That’s great!
Sep 06, 2012 @ 15:42:22
Cute! My daughter is sitting in my lap and loved seeing the pictures.
Sep 06, 2012 @ 13:53:01
So cute, I was grinning from ear to ear. Thanks for sharing!
Sep 06, 2012 @ 12:49:36
Sitting here with a goofy grin, Lorna! What a perfect collection of photos for your message.
BTW…Thanks for great, still photos. Since repetitious motion affects me physically, the stillness of today made for an easy visit.

Sounds right to me! 🙂

What’s that old saying? “Smile and the (animal) world smiles with you.” Something like that.

I thought they were sweet and who couldn’t use a little zero-calorie sweetness in their day? 🙂

Smiling animals – gotta love ’em! 🙂
