I woke up this morning. Did my regular routines every morning. Washed my teeth, meditated for 1 hour, checked if everyone is playing by the rules in promotion channel in our Steem Engine group and suddenly I get a notification from my amazing friend Eliza Cheng. I always check her comments right away because they are always thoughtful and great comments.

But, this time it was not on one of my posts. It was in her post submission for #smilechallenge started by @herlife. Read her great comment, and in which she nominates me to do the same. I am always up for spreading some positive energy and some smiles.But guys, she does not who is she messing with, my phone is full of smiles. lol GAME ON, Eliza. IT IS SO ON. lol

P.S. I cheated a bit. You will find out why. :) lol

• The first smile I am sharing is from my basketball season in Costa D'Orlando, Sicily. Beautiful place. If you like the beach and the ocean this is THE place to visit. :)

• The second smiles I am sharing from my season in Basket Mestre after I had 38 point game. And we won. Mestre had some great fans and it was fun playing in front of them and their singing through the entire game.

• Third smiles are from my home back in Croatia after my basketball season just digging in on this watermelon. One of the most amazing fruits for summer. Especially if it comes from the fridge cold. :)

• The fourth smile comes after my team won the championship. One great memory worth smiling about. Amazing day in my life. :)

The Cheating Starts. lol

Nowhere in the rules, it said it had to be selfie smiles or that it has to be only the picture of ME smiling in it. So I brought in some SMILES help. Take that Eliza... lolol :) I brought in the smile calvary. :)

• My brother Nikola and me on working on restoring our house this past summer. Working hard and smiling even more.

• Before I left Mestre, Venezia I took a memory photo with one of the most amazing fans and people I have met in my life.
  

• My teammates and me visiting National Park, Sila earlier this years. Smiles all around. :)

• We have a tradition of taking team selfies photo after every win we get. So far we already made 10 photos. Smiles all around. :)

• My brother and me visiting Murter, Croatia. Beautiful place with amazing crystal clear the Adriatic Sea. Great day with my brother.

• Two foreign players on the team this year having a good night. They were handing out these funny hats in this restaurant. So why not? Snap a funny photo. :)

• And, for the last one, I am playing "fair" again and just posting my own selfie photo from my recent visit to Napoli, Italy.

I absolutely love this challenge even though I cheated a bit and brought some team smiles in. Well, actually I did not cheat I just found a loophole in the rules. I always say the "devil" is in the details. lol No matter what you do in life. Thank you, Eliza, my amazing friend for nominating me for this challenge. Let's change the world together one smile at the time. The power of smiling is unlimited. I truly believe so. So my friends smile every day of life. It will heal your soul. :)

Now to continue this amazing challenge I nominate some other amazing people on Steemit: @lenasveganliving @ethansmith @uwelang @ana-maria @calebbleejl @eaglespirit @enchantedspirit @apanamamama @hopehuggs .

I could name a lot more, but I will let you nominate some after. Let's spread some SMILES, my friends. We can change the world one smile at the time. So join in and let's begin this ripple of SMILES. :)
