Mr. Happy Man

199,570 views
For six hours each day, Bermuda's Johnny Barnes stands at a busy traffic intersection telling all who pass that he loves them. His delight and sincerity are infectious, and the people of the island love him back. His service is a simple reminder of the power of happiness and loving-kindness to change any day for the better.

Think that love isn't a powerful business tool? Guess again. See how the Bermuda Hotel Association touts Johnny Barnes as a tourist attraction.

I've done this often. Just walking by a long stream of cars waiting to get onto a highway. People are very anxious and bored - I just smile and waving like I know them... and always to my amazement they can't help put smile back and get get their driver to smile too. Try it! Just walk down the street with a big smile on your face. (Think "happy heart - happy Heart" and it won't be a fake smile.) It's a wonderful "Daana" It will make your day too! It probably helps that I am 79 years old.
