Good News: It's World Smile Day! Meet kind people helping make others smile
It's World Smile Day! And let's face it, everyone needs a reason to smile. Believe it or not, the person who came up with World Smile Day is the same person who created the iconic smiley face, commercial artist Harvey Ball. He was concerned about the over-commercialization of his symbol and so, 36 years after its invention, he created a holiday to bring out the true intent of the symbol.
The idea behind the fun holiday is a simple one. "Do an act of kindness. Help one person smile." That sentiment strongly resonates with Humankind, so we've rounded up some stories of people who've made it their mission to be kind just to make someone smile!
If you'd like to share positivity with the world, we'd love your help! Humankind from Paste BN tells uplifting stories about kindness, triumphs and special relationships. We wouldn't be able to show the world all of this kindness if it weren't for people like you who capture kind moments on camera!
