“~¥~ Childhood is the only period where we don't know this world, where we are unaware of what is happening around us.à It is the only time where this smile comes from the bottom of our heart, where there is a true smile... because later, the smile will disappear... the smile will become a grin to convince others that all is well, but really speaking, all is wrong, bad ... Gradually, we will learn to suffer with a smile to the lips to not worry our loved ones. Roughly speaking, A Fake Smile Can Hide A Lot Of Pain . . .”
