Catching up with some more ways people are keeping Lent, this is from Claire (I hope it cheers you up on this grey, rainy day).
 
“I like to think I smile a lot, I hope I’m not seen as some grumpy middle-aged woman! A smile is free, it’s infectious…it keeps your face muscles fit….I’m going to smile at people in the street more, say a bigger ‘Thank you’ to those letting me through in traffic, wave to fraught mums with a double buggy  to cross the road…stay a safe and courteous distance from a learner driver (we were all one once!)…It costs me nothing but could just brighten someone’s day.”
 
‘Smiling faces make you happy, and good news make you feel better’  Proverbs 15:30 (Good News translation)
