I loved this video so much when I first saw it way back when and I tell people to watch it all the time. I am all about smiles. I like to see people smile. That is probably why I have done a lot of stand up comedy. I crave laughter and smiles. I feed off of it. This video warmed my heart so much. But with Covid and masks I cant see people smile and it is honestly hard for me not to see smiles. It is equivalent to me not getting enough sunlight. So if you ever meet me smile at me. I will respect you more if you do. I also want to add that this was even more important to be in done in a high school a time when people feel very insecure about themselves. I love it
