Yes I usually smile and nod hello to most people. It really can cheer the elderly up!

No, i almost never smile to strangers. The Swedish people are so wierd, its almost like their is alot of unwritten rules and sh*t that i dont know about. Often when in out im probably going somewhere which means i am focused on getting to the place i want and not caring much for virtually anything else. Besides that i find swedes very often robotic, emtionless and boring so i tend to avoid places where i have to smile at strangers.

even do they are stranger, you need to smile with them, its up to them if they will not smile back, that what they said much better to show them a kindness, than they will be the one who show you.

I will smile at people if they smile first or make a passing comment. Also if someone holds open a door for me. I tend to smile at mothers with babies or small children more than anything. Unfortunately it is considered a bit odd to smile at all strangers although when a stranger does smile it is all the more special and is hard not to reciprocate.

I usually smile at a stranger, only because I work for the public and you never know when that person is or could become a customer. I don't want anyone thinking. " Well she's not a very friendly person". But, yeah, If someone smiles at me, I usually smile back as well. It's contagious.

yes if you smile to someone you could send positive energy to him/her... always look on the bright side don't put off until tomorrow, what you could easily do today... never wear a frown, always smile... look after your pets, remember they are so loyal, they always love you even if you do not deserve it... LOL...
