The Best Kind of Power

We're bombarded with people desiring power and control. Unfortunately, most aren't after the greatest form of power, which is love. Love is as important to thriving and survival as oxygen. The quickest way to spread it around is with a genuine, caring, smile. When noise and negativity overwhelm me, I'm immediately lifted up by seeing someone connect with their smile. You all know that comforting feeling.

As a photographer, I'm fortunate to have a huge collection of smiles captured in my work. I share them often with you because you all live in the same noisy world as me.

So, in this time of masks hiding smiles, I'll continue to post some of my favorites for you. It's impossible to look at them and not feel happy somewhere deep inside.

“You’ll find that life is still worthwhile, if you just smile.”– Charlie Chaplin
