Some of you may or may not know this, but a smile can save a life.

An excellent example was from the 1970s, a man around the age of 30 jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge.
His suicide note read simply the following:
"I'm going to walk to the bridge. If one person smiles at me on the way, I will not jump."

Save lives: smile at other students when walking through school hallways, swallow your pride and defend those being bullied.
You'll never know whose life you're saving, and what future you're changing.

"Whoever saves one life, saves the entire world."

That's so sad. No one smiled at him?

[Styx]

Smiles always give happiness.
It's like a epidemic, it spreads fast, so if you start it, it spreads like hell.
Of course someone else can spread it on to you. ; D

[FireyDevel]

In all honesty, I smile at EVERYTHING, hell... It's usually how I even cope with stress and anxitey

SO true!

It's also an amazing way yo get to know people - Smile and say 'Hi' when you pass them in the halls, in the mall, at games, anywhere.

when i walk around my school (we have a LOT of students) no one randomly smiles

i dont know if its just my school, but not many people just smile to each other. do they?

[Styx]

Schools, nah, the vibe of other people thinking your gay and stuff is very strong. Well at my school. .__.

[Gramps]

I smile at everything, don't know why, maybe 'cos i look so damn good when i do

[GavinGill]

You know what else could have been done to save his life? Stopping him when it was clear he was making his way to the edge of the bridge. I smile, say hi, and try to be nice for sake of being genuinely nice, not to save lives or do someone a favor. Know what I mean?

[Allie]

Gavin, I see what you mean, but the entire reason that happened was not because he wanted a smile so he wouldn't suicide, it'd be because he wanted someone to acknowledge he was there.
When you smile at someone, you are basically showing that you acknowledge they exist, rather then when you walk right by them without even a look.
Some people are driven to suicide because they feel invisible, a simple smile would make them feel better.

It takes more courage to brighten someone's day then it does to go sky diving.

[Iridion]

lolk
i tought: if i were to suicide and i wanted someone to smile at me and have them to brighten my day, not just walk to a bridge and expect random people to smile at me but meh

It probably does.

lolz.

1. people that are driven to suicide are retards. nuff said. it's no one's fault they're about to commit suicide, apart from theirs. be nice so people will be nice to you. I don't think there's someone on the earth not to find at least a few people to respond to being nice with being nice. where I am going is that. if someone wants friends he has to make friends. not commit suicide because of it.

2. randomly smiling is indeed retarded. however, I act retarded to make people smile, which I kinda like. of course, there are also idiots who think that's my natural self, but the others know what I am doing and love me for it. of course, you gotta fill up gaps with jokes and of course, BEING NICE.

3. hmmm... and again, I add a + to iri's post. it goes like. you just smile at some people? it's usually about flirting. if you do it to another man, it's UTTERLY GAY.

and for one last time, you gotta know how to make friends. staying in a corner of the room crying all day long and thinking of committing suicide isn't of any help. -_-

...?

If you're walking down the sidewalk and someone walking in your direction gives you a smile, wouldn't you smile back? I always do unless it's a guy between 14 - 20, then it's just a polite nod. Why cant the rest of you inferior countries be more like Canada, eh?
