gratiTUBE: Mr. Happy Man!

“If we learned to love one another, there’d be no wars, be no killing, be no raping, be no fighting. We human beings have to learn how to love one another.”

– Mr. Happy Man a.k.a. Johnny Barnes!

The first time I saw this video, I was filled with immense joy in my heart. Be it rain or shine, people in Hamilton, Bermuda can be sure to look forward to be greeted by this cheerful 90-year-old every morning! I was also told a story that once a couple was driving to hospital (the wife was 9 months pregnant and she was going to get admitted for her delivery) and when they crossed Johnny Barnes, he missed them and they didn’t get a wave from him. The couple actually drove around and came back until he saw them and said “I love you”. 🙂 See the full video here for more stories on how Mr. Happy Man has touched people’s life and why he chooses to smile and spread love all day! Every time I see the video, I have this huge smile on my face which stays on for much longer after the 10 minutes!

I love you.
