A SINGLE SMILE CAN HIDE ALL OF THE HURT
It’s really amazing how people tend to hide their true emotions with a smile, isn’t it? It’s also very fascinating how a single smile can change a person’s impression towards one another, for instance, a girl being abused by her partner can even hide all disappointments inside her by just faking a smile.
SMILE:
A four-letter word with such great meaning. A word that could hide all the evilness in the world, manipulate a person’s mood, and most importantly, can deceive the whole world.
Whenever we hear the word “smile”, we always think of it as a positive thing; seldom negative. How about when we hear the word “smirk” or “grin”? Don’t we think of it as an evil thing?
Let us focus more on how a single smile can deceive the whole world. For instance, a super influential superstar- may it be Justin Bieber or Zayn Malik could smile all their way to get fame and fortune, but let us all face it; being a famous person isn’t always ups, being a phenomenal superstar doesn’t always mean a great, resplendent life. Don’t these people we look up to cry whenever no one’s looking? Don’t these people act as if they’re taking in what’s best life has to offer when the truth is they’re not?
Based on personal experience, the ability of hiding one’s real emotions isn’t always a thing that all people should desire or look up to; it’s sometimes the roots of being plastic or unreal, if you know what I mean. A person could ask you if you’re fine and you’ll answer “yes” with a bright smile plastered on your face even though your heart is frowning. Does it feel good to lie about one’s self?
For others, yes, but mostly no.
What I’m trying to say is that a person whom you think is okay; because she’s always smiling and she seems so happy with her life may not really be what she seems to be.
