Shannon McCluskie uploaded a short video on TikTok, where he recites a poem about viral spread, he is not referring to COVID-19, but about how joy spreads from one person to the next.

“A smile can be very contagious,” he says. “You can catch it like the flu. Someone smiled at me today, and I started to smile too.”

What a positive video this is for all of us, we do not need to flood our minds and hearts with fear-inducing articles on the news, but we can choose to spread joy and smiles to everyone around just like Shannon McCluskie has done.

This is so sweet and wholesome.

Verse of the Day

“The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,” and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.”

Romans 13:9-10
