"Are you happy?".
"Obviously! Why else would I be smiling?".
"Then why isn't your smile reaching your eyes?".
"What?".
"Why aren't they crinkled at the edges as they are normally?".
The smile drooped and vanished.
"Talk to me I am here for you".

Everybody needs someone to listen to them from time to time.
If you cannot find one, be one.
Because seeing others happy due to your help will make you happy too.
