Smile
Smile though your heart is aching Smile even though its breaking When there are clouds in the sky, youll get by If you smile through your fear and sorrow Smile and maybe tomorrow Youll see the sun come shining through for you Light up your face with gladness Hide every trace of sadness Although a tear may be ever so near Thats the time you must keep on trying Smile, whats the use of crying? Youll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile Thats the time you must keep on trying Smile, whats the use of crying? Youll find that life is still worthwhile If you just smile
I used to think that song was bull, if I'm not feeling it on the inside then why fake it on the outside? But this woman might have changed my mind on that. Saturday I was in the mood for Vitamin C so after my work out I hit Publix, where shopping is a pleasure, for some oranges. A woman smiled at me and she was missing maybe four teeth in the front and her smile was mostly tongue but she warmed my heart sharing her joy with me. I smiled back but I didn't show my teeth because I would have felt like I was showing off so I gave her a pleasant grin. And even though I wasn't feeling it before, my heart was warm.

Being humble is the key I guess. I can tell she appreciated it, lol.
