Most days all human beings come across many other human beings. When I am at school I talk to many and see many. These people are all different walks of life. Another example is, if someone were to walk to work in Chicago, that person would encounter perhaps hundreds, if not thousands of people.

Of course, I was extremely happy as well because I will be blessed with another niece or nephew. Although, what I am getting at is that his smile and excitement was contagious and turned my average day into a very great day! Now, I am not just rambling on about an example, there is a point to this. The point is that I myself try to be nice and show happiness to everyone else. For one main reason, we as people may not know what someone has going on in their life at that time. For example, I know a older lady in town who just recently lost her husband. He had been suffering from alzheimer's for many years now and unexpectedly passed. I had seen her at the grocery store a few weeks after her husband's passing, and as expected she was rather lonely and sad. As I was walking by her I had said hello, gave her a smile, and told her to have a great day. Just with that small simple gesture, I seen her smile and immediately perk up a little. That is just one example as to why I took the advice of being nice and polite to everyone I see. No matter if I know someone is struggling with something or not, it
