Problems are part of life. Not from books, but from daily rounds through crowded streets, unexpected delays and the small tests that make one impatient.
Every day brings something unplanned. Other times it’s traffic; other times, it’s worries; still other times silence can feel heavy.
I came to understand at some point that my frowning isn't doing away with my problems. They stay. It’s how I confront them that changes. A smile won't fix everything, but it gives me the strength to keep moving. It’s a reminder that I am still here, breathing and capable.
It’s not weak to smile in the face of trouble.
