Today I got a smile from a young girl
She was young and bubbling. Her lips were full and pouting, red and wanting to be bit. She had full hips and a swagger that screamed attention. I smiled at her. An embarrassed smile but full and noticed. I stood there frozen and ashamed of my attention to her, I looked away still smiling. She noticed and said "Hi!" I giggled and said "Hi" back, looking away knowing that the age difference was too great. I watched as she took her sand cruiser bicycle and rode off away like she did before. It was a wonderful moment. One I'll re-live again and again. It was a wonderful moment. I loved it. I made her smile at me and she made me smile at her. It made me feel so wonderful, so magical, so powerful. I didn't know I still had it in me to evoke that kind of emotion from someone. I have been so down on myself lately that I thought I was dead inside. But that moment really stole me away. You have no idea. It was so special. I know I'll never see her again, nor she me but we shared that moment and it will live forever.

That's terrific! Smiles are a tremendous currency to deal in.
When I flew home the other day on Southwest Airlines, I asked the flight attendant if I could use my drink coupons that expired in January. The other attendant in the background offered "they never expire". The first flight attendant was somebody's radiant mom. She looked at me and said, "it all depends; what kind of smile have you got?" I beamed a good one and she gave me one back and said "here ya go!"
Got two smiles for a BSEG?
