When Should I Smile?

When Should I Smile? Smile, they say. It will help break the ice. Smile, they say. It does not cost anything. Smile, they say, it will help fix everything. So, why should I smile? To show that I am not sad? To make you feel less bad? To forget my anger? I don't think so. I will smile when I want to. I will smile when I need to. I will smile when I feel like. I will smile....for me!
