Smile at a dog and &nbsp;see it wagging it\u2019s tail at you.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Smile and approach someone in an unknown land, you surely will be helped.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Even the smiley emoticons sometimes help you from being misunderstood in a conversation.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Now now, smiles from some strangers and smiling at them can be real tricky, you gotta trust that feeling from your gut there!!
