Have you noticed how quickly your mood changes when you are among warm, positive and smiling people?<\/p>\n

That is what Harvey Ball may have noticed when he came up with World Smile Day.<\/p>\n

According to Mr. Ball, a smile has healing qualities and makes people feel better while seeing the positive side of things. Mr Ball is also behind the creation of the well-known Smiley Face!<\/p>\n

He never patented the world known symbol, nor did he request money after its success. He used to say \u201c’Hey, I\u00a0can only eat<\/em>\u00a0one steak at a time, drive one car at a time!\u201d.<\/p>\n

On Friday October 7th<\/sup> 2016, the QLS network of language schools celebrated World Smile Day with many interesting activities all around Greece and shared smiles, smiley balloons and positive messages in their areas.<\/p>\n

The project was part of QLS\u2019s \u201cKeep Smiling: From Children To Children\u201d Volunteering Year 2016-2017 which will include a variety of monthly volunteering projects and activities.<\/p>\n
