It's a wonder how a smile, from anyone will do, can help lessen any negativity within the body, the friendliness in each smile, makes one feel a whole lot more wanted, a whole lot more important, than one perceives. Greeted by ever genuine smiles every morning by my classmates, no matter how gloomy, or sad i was from the previous day, they have this special ability to lift off the gloom, and we are not even close friends. it was the feeling behind the smile, not the rationality. no wonder i have learnt to smile, even though i'm feeling really down, if by forcing a smile on my face, even when i'm really sad or hurt, can bring a world of comfort to someone else, i would gladly do so, anytime.

smiling amid crisis.
