I have been writing in a journal on an almost-daily basis since I was 17 years old. This is a record of me going through each entry from the beginning, and commenting on the me from fifteen years ago.

There’s a smile inside me that I like to let loose on the world every so often. It’s got a way of letting out what I’ve got to give. When I’m gone, I want to keep letting that smile go. I like what it does for me.

Smiles are contagious. If you’ve ever been to Thailand, you see intense proof of that every day. The more you smile, the more others around you smile. It’s like a positive contagion.
