"Before when I smiled at someone on the street, I needed for them to return a smile or my day was ruined and/or I harbored ungrateful thoughts about the SOB. Today when I smile at people on the street, I choose not not to expect a smile in return; because my own smile is a gift to them and one to myself -- for a giving and receiving are one and the same. If they do smile back, it is frosting on the cake that is my day; frosting created by my sister or brother. And if they smile at me first, I beam and shine and acknowledge my oneness with them in the deepest part of my being, in my heart and in my soul." -- Michael Walker
