Say Cheese!! And Smile it out
It’s World Smile Day. The day is observed on the first Friday of October and this year it falls on October 2. The charming and fun day intends to spread a smile on everyone’s face.
Well, the history of World Smile Day is intriguing and fascinating. It all started back in 1963 with the creation of the smiley face. Harvey Ball, an artist from Worcester, Massachusetts, created one of the most well-known symbols to ever exist. At that point, the symbol was known to be related to goodwill and was used to cheer up people. But as the symbol started being used extensively in media and marketing, the original meaning seemed to have disappeared and Harvey Ball became more and more concerned with the usage of his work.
