An Unpretentious Smile

    Relationships are hard to maintain, manage, understand, and be successful at; however there are relationships, every so often one will happen with such ease that it doesn't feel like that of a relationship at all.  This is not an intimate relationship that I speak of.  I am speaking of the kind with heart, loyalty, and a genuine interest in the person just because they are a friendly and amusing human being. 
    I have made a new friend.  She is enthusiastic, kind, loyal, funny, smart, independent, and has a smile that speak a thousand stories.  We will call her Jill for the sake of privacy.  Crazy Internet creepers nowadays. 
Jill, had touched me and my perspective of people more then most that I come across.  The unpretentious smile that she gives off so easily to complete strangers amazes me.  A genuine and truthful smile is not only rare to see but extremely hard to do.  Why?  I am unsure. 

   Getting back to the point of this blog...silver lining...

The ability to smile at total strangers and the rare occasion of finding a friend that intrigues you to learn more about them and others around you is my line.  This line is long, spotty, and one that I plan on developing and exploring more.   Not because it's interesting and a learning experience but more so because having a new friend that makes you genuinely happy is difficult to find, so when you do...hang on tight.
