Sharing kindness, memories, and love as inspired by Marli.

Smile4Marli was inspired by the life of one kind and joyful person named Marli.  As a young lady, her demeanor was quiet and genuine, while her spirit was bold and compassionate.  Whether facing adversity or celebration, Marli always wore a smile – a constant, contagious, and sincere smile.  She recognized the impact of a positive attitude.  Marli would sit quietly beside a disabled classmate – just to offer them companionship.  Marli would nod politely to recognize the shy child overwhelmed by life – acknowledging that they indeed mattered.  Marli would patiently endure the rambling of acquaintances that wanted to share their view of the world – recognizing their need to communicate.  Her patient, positive compassion was amazing and inspiring to all of us who witnessed the effects of her kindness.  Marli transformed her immediate world through a positive attitude and simple acts of kindness.  May we all learn from Marli’s example.
