99% of the time my smile is genuine and I'm happy. This time last year my smile hid the pain behind my mom passing away.

Its that old saying, what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and sometimes puts a smile on our face all at the same time. Nobody likes a cry-baby, and sometimes people who cry the blues are lonely because of that.

I agree with you. "Smile though your heart is aching." It is one of the lyrics in a song.

I smile because i am happy to be here for another Christmas. My smiles are genuine. There wasca time where I had to smile through much sadness in my life. Keeping a positive attitude helped.

I have smiled a lot hiding the anger trying to stay positive

I learned to smile so people wouldn't think I looked mean or ask me what was wrong. I smile as well to look prettier in photos. A smile sure can hide a lot!

My smile often hides my sadness. When people I love are unwell I am sad, but the others must not know.

I try to just smile when I mean it. I feel if I smile when I am not happy or having a bad day is a fake smile. If I am not happy I will not smilel

It is easy to know when I am bothered - because I can't fake a smile.
