When we smile, it is not because there is nothing to make us frown or look sad. But we realise that there is so much gloom and darkness out there already, that more from us won’t make any difference. So we’d rather smile and shine a light, radiate hope and warmth.
More darkness does not bring about less darkness, but in the darkest of nights, even a flicker of light is significant. Things are going wrong, and many are being hurt; but wearing a sad face won’t make it any better. I’d rather you put on a smile, even if it’s a pretentious one.
