girl_jane Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...

If you smile
With your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile if you'll
just...
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you'll just...
Smile, though your heart is aching
Smile, even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky
You'll get by...

If you smile
Through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you'll just Smile...

That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you'll just Smile.

I don't have a penis, I work with small children and I live in reality.

Love children but they don't heal me and I don't expect them to either.

nit the only thing that will ever really heal me is eating murderers. 100812

unhinged oops; my lashing out has been a problem lately. but i also live in reality my friend.


MY reality being that when a child makes me laugh or smile it really does heal some part of my wounded heart; gives me hope of the good in the world. it is not something i expect from children. it is what i have felt to be true time and time again.


that there is some truth in the healing power of smiles; being able to smile through the sadness however the smile comes about fuses the broken parts back together.

f yes, i agree that children give you a lot of happiness but i don't believe they can take away what is a deeper sadness. It is only you who can heal yourself and what is best for that is facing the pain not covering it up. 100812
