Describe a random encounter with a stranger that stuck out positively to you.

This is not about any one person but my general observation.

In the United States, it’s common for people to greet each other with a friendly smile. This happens even when they are strangers.

This simple gesture is may be a part of their culture of openness and politeness. A smile is often accompanied by a casual “hello,” “hi,” or “how are you?” This happens whether walking down the street, entering a store, or passing someone in a hallway. They often acknowledge others with eye contact. They give a brief smile. This is especially common in smaller towns or suburban areas.

Isn’t it a sign of kindness and good manners. It helps create a warm and welcoming atmosphere, even in busy or unfamiliar places.

I think in we should follow such traditions instead of blindly following every other things which we otherwise do. A smile can break the ice and is often the first step toward conversation.
