The Weight of a Smile

My Round Four entry for the UWSClub Writing Challenge. The prompt was "humanity", and we were supposed to write a story based on something we were deeply in touch with, as well as include three out of eight pictures.
I chose to write about how seemingly tiny and insignificant things we do (or others do for us) can have a huge impact. Over the last few years in my own life especially, I have come to realize just how much those very small things can mean.

For the judges, the pictures I used in the order that I used them:
#6- Tiger swimming in algae, #7- attatched cottages on a small lane next to a stream, #8- faceless plastic dolls in a factory, #5- leaping dancer.
