Kurz erklärt
Our devices often become associated with stress (emails, news). This reclaims them as sources of positivity.
Unlike social media smileys, this is private—no algorithms or performative pressure.

So kannst du sofort starten
- Open any notes app you rarely use (or create a new one).

- Optional: Add today's date or a one-word note ('Sunshine').
- Repeat whenever you need a digital mood boost.

💬 Deine Erfolgsgeschichten
I've been adding ':)' to a notes app for months. Recently stumbled on them all while cleaning my phone—it was like finding a trail of breadcrumbs left by happier past selves. Now I add context like ':)'—got the job!'
