A smile is the best language. The truth of a smile is that it's like a seed that can grow in a garden called "life".

If there is one thing I have missed the most in the past 3 years, it is to see other people smile. When every face has a mask(口罩)on it, you might feel safer. But your mind might start to feel sick. Over these last months, I've learned to notice the "stars" in people's eyes that they still have when they smile from behind a mask. But it isn't quite the same.

Every smile is like a gift. As I grow up, my mom's smile always warms my heart. I am so happy that it appears on the faces of my children. My grandparents' smile always has a happy "Hello!" along with it. My dad hardly smiles to us, but I always loved seeing it.

Over the years, I have also learned a lot about smiles. I have read that "We don't smile because we are happy. We are happy because we smile." I also read that "I have never seen a smiling face that wasn't beautiful." And I know that both of these things were true. What I remember most, though, is something from my teacher. He said, "If nobody wants us to be happy, why does smiling feel so good?"

It doesn't matter if you are wearing a mask or not. It doesn't matter if your teeth are white or not. Show the world your smile. Smiles share our love. Smiles spread our joy. Smiles make the world's better place. One of the greatest, kindness and most loving things you can do is to give another person your smile.
