Lovely Monoku, Eve. Internally we may be roiling with agony, yet we mask it with fabricated waves of cheerfulness. Win Big

Hi Eve, such profound words to describe one's grief - loss and grief will forever be felt when a loved one has passed. HUGS AND LOVE MY FRIEND, Jennifer.

There may be seething volcanoes of pain inside, but we hide our grief and pain with made up ripples of smile. Great monoku , dear Eve

No one knows what goes on beneath, a smile hides one’s personal grief. Excellent Monoku Eve… Belle
