“I smile, you smile. Therefore, I smile. “

His name is Chibita, Shiba dog. We spent long time together. He always smiled on his waks, when he was playing and when he wanted a snack. His smile made me so happy and brightened up my life. Yes, his smile was full of happiness.! On our walks we saw over and over again that Chibita’s smile brought smiles to people’s faces. Smile is contagious. They make people feel happy and make them want to smile back. Chibita taught me this. It’s very simple, but sometime I forgot. I believe we can make peace all over the world, simply by smiling. This is the Happy Spiral. I would like to share lovely dog’s smiling, called “Angel smile” here.

柴犬のチビ太。以前一緒に暮らしていた犬です。お散歩で、おやつを食べるとき、いつも笑っていました。彼の笑顔を見るとわたしが嬉しくなる、とても幸せに満ち溢れた時間になる。お散歩に出ると、彼の笑顔ですれ違う人々の顔が笑顔に変わるのを幾度となく見てきた。きっと、笑顔はまた次の笑顔を作る。チビ太はそんなことを教えてくれました。笑顔で世界平和も夢でなく、いい広がりを見せてくれるはず。これがハッピースパイラル。

May this world be filled with many smiles.

I always walk to find Ange Smile in Japan now. If these smiles create another one, that’s completely my joy. May this world be filled with many smiles.

現在は、「天使の笑顔」と呼び、あちこち素敵なワンちゃんの笑顔を求めて、撮り歩いています。少しでも多くの笑顔をお届けすることで、また新たな笑顔をつくるお手伝いができれば、この上ない喜び。この世が笑顔でいっぱいになりますように。
