I wish we would talk to each other more, get out of our sealed anxietal personal worlds?'

Of course by doing just that, I wasn't contributing to change a lot...

Anyway, I'm off, because I stared at this little box for too long (even when it is radiating beauty :-). It snowed here in Antwerp last night and now the sun's shining... better greet it

Peace & 1Love,

Hi Dakapacity,
I've become more conscious of my behaviour to other people. Therefore,I've been trying out the smiling at strangers thing too. From greeting cashiers in grocery stores or greeting people in my office building elevator with a great big smile as you say, really works wonders. I no longer have that uncomfortable feeling riding in elevators with strangers and not knowing where to look. By just making one small comment with a smile it makes our ride a lot more comfortable.
