We have been hearing a lot of negative news since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, but now an elderly man has taken a unique step of spreading joy and laughter on social media to counter it.

Shannon McCluskie uploaded a short video on TikTok, where he recites a poem about viral spread, he is not referring to COVID-19, but about how joy spreads from one person to the next.

“A smile can be very contagious,” he says. “You can catch it like the flu. Someone smiled at me today, and I started to smile too.”

What a positive video this is for all of us, we do not need to flood our minds and hearts with fear-inducing articles on the news, but we can choose to spread joy and smiles to everyone around just like Shannon McCluskie has done.

This is so sweet and wholesome.

Verse of the Day

“[Jesus a Third Time Predicts His Death and Resurrection] Now Jesus, going up to Jerusalem, took the twelve disciples aside on the road and said to them, “Behold, we are going up to Jerusalem, and the Son of Man will be betrayed to the chief priests and to the scribes; and they will condemn Him to death, and deliver Him to the Gentiles to mock and to scourge and to crucify. And the third day He will rise again.””

Matthew 20: 17-19
