Article: ‘Maybe change starts with a smile’ by MEDIU’s Alumni in Gazette Times

Yosof Wanly’s article ‘Maybe change starts with a smile’ revolves on the formulation of the elements of a ‘Smile’ in the happiness in a human life.

Could the exposed and constantly bombarded world with negative things such as economic conflicts, ethnic prejudices can regain its “happiness” and “change” with a SMILE?

In reality, a ‘Smile’ brings and  build a positive signal approachable aura. Again, as a human connection, a sincere smile often makes others feel better, it build friendships and bonded a relationship. In times of anger, a smile elevates the mood. Thus, in life the actions we choose, always reflects our inner leadership. Smiling cannot be the best way to change, but it is a step toward personal revolution. The branch is the smile, but its root is “confidence.”
