Latest Newsletter (Feb 7, 2010)

"Ever since I found this website and joined your wonderful group of 'SMILERS', I have realized the true power of a Smile. Earlier, I used to smile a lot, but after I joined this website, it has added a new meaning, and now when I smile, there is a purpose - to spread happiness - to keep on smiling until I receive a smile back. It so happens that I work in an analyst department where the members are always ploughing away at their work quite seriously, clicking the mouse, typing in the numbers, searching the net... you know how it is. Prior, to my joining the team there was always a loud silence, broken only by hushed whispers, mouse clicks or keyboard sounds. But today, I must confess after more than six months of "smiling with a purpose" I can see a group of smiles and some friendly looks starting to come back to me. Recently on a few occasions the room has even been filled with warmth and laughter." -- smilinglady7
