SmilyDays’ vision

To feel, write, and share. Gathering around a common dream…

Feel

Let’s embrace the immense gift of being alive, everyday!

SmilyDays invites you to refocus on the countless pleasures each day offers. However small they may be—and unique to each of us—they are ever-present, day and night, wherever we are on this planet.

Pay attention to all the things that bring you joy, and experience them fully. These moments of pleasure, happiness, smiles, emotions, pride, energy, or desire. See each day as a vast landscape, filled with these little and big joys that enrich our lives.

Generate happiness daily !

I once heard the famous sailor Olivier Kersauson speak about what he called “the magic of being alive.”

I wholeheartedly believe in this sense of wonder. This sensitivity, often associated with childhood, holds immense value—it is a source of precious energy that sparks excitement, laughter, connections, and shared experiences.

Open yourself to every moment, to everything around you, here and now, day after day.

Because that’s what makes life so beautiful…

Write

Take a moment each evening to reflect on the day’s little pleasures.

SmilyDays is also about putting your feelings into words—expressing what you’ve experienced today. Using the beauty of our language to capture, in your own way, what’s stirring inside you.

Share emotions through words.

Make each day a beautiful story, even with just a few words. Whether it’s six or seven words or a few lines.

Share

Share the beauty that surrounds us all

SmilyDays is here to remind us that happiness is always within reach—sometimes just across the street. By inspiring readers on SmilyDays’ social networks to pay closer attention to the world around them, we can uncover the small, everyday wonders that make life so special.

See each day as a journey—one filled with joy, connection, emotions, and life itself!

Create a Positive Spiral

For over ten years, I’ve embraced and lived by this belief: a state of mind that generates positivity—not just for ourselves, but for the world around us. A vision of a world where we embrace what uplifts us, where each day is enriched with emotions, smiles, and meaningful connections. A world where we cherish and celebrate beauty, no matter how small, every single day.

Smile, and make the world smile!

This has been my mission since my second chance at life after a serious illness. I truly believe that anyone—without having to endure such a challenge—can embrace this mindset and turn their life into a vibrant, joyful, and exhilarating adventure!

Live fully. Feel truly alive.

A Shared Dream: The Journal of Happiness

Becoming a SmilyDayser means sharing the small joys of your everyday life. Your words could be featured on the SmilyDays Instagram page and in the Happiness Newsletter—a monthly digital journal filled with the most inspiring contributions from the SmilyDays.com community.

It also means becoming part of a shared dream—helping to turn it into reality.

A dream of a newspaper of happiness—a printed edition sold alongside the world’s most renowned publications. But unlike traditional newspapers, SmilyDays wouldn’t be written by left-wing or right-wing journalists covering the world’s tragedies. Instead, it would be crafted by everyday people, sharing the beauty and positivity that surround us.

Currently available in French and English, SmilyDays is slowly expanding. But our vision doesn’t stop there—we plan to expand into more languages soon, making this dream accessible to even more people across the globe!

The goal? To unite as many SmilyDaysers as possible around this shared dream—a daily mission to create a better world, despite the challenges our planet faces.

And if, one day, hundreds of thousands—perhaps even millions—join this movement, it will no longer be just a dream. It will become reality.

An exciting adventure. A mission bursting with life. A deep conviction—far more than just a utopia.

Because that’s what makes life so beautiful!
