when a heart smiles












Some people smile with their lips but frown in their hearts. What if we could smile, and it was merely a by-product of the joy inside? That kind of smile lights up the eyes. That kind of smile is real. When it happens, it seems like the sun shines in, piercing the gloomiest, darkest parts of your heart. It's like a volcano: when the lava ignites to a certain point, it bursts from the mountain top in a wondrous, visible explosion. I had a weekend that's got me smiling this way:) Enjoy the pictures, and the next time you smile, think: is it just pasted on to look pretty or is my smile a volcanic eruption from the joy within?
