SLOGAN
“Sanshou Kouha” (三笑幸波) is the slogan of our project,
embodying the idea that “Three smiles open up a happy world.”
Me, you, and your loved ones.
By envisioning not just the person in front of you, but also someone beyond them smiling together, I believe that smiles in the world can increase more sustainably.
・・・・・
The words you say and the feelings you experience can change depending on whether the other person is a “stranger” or “someone important to someone you care about (like a friend’s family member)” in the same situation.
For example, when someone bumps into you on a train platform, if the person is a stranger…
But if you imagine, “Maybe this person is someone important to someone I care about”…
You might feel more compassionate, and the words you say might change as well.
・・・・・
May this sentiment spread like waves, bringing more and more happiness to the world.
