Why must I look the way I feel
Just because I wear a smile
Doesn't mean I'm not in pain
Is it necessary for me to moan and groan
With my chronic illnesses
On the inside as well as the outside
It helps to keep up my positive attitude
So that I do not waller in despair
My smile is to hide all my pain
I wonder if most walked in my shoes
Would they be able to keep smiling?
Who wants to walk around
Looking like crap all day long
Just because I do not look like crap
Does not mean I don't feel like crap
I want ME to shine through
Not my pain.
That is what is provocative and most attractive of the human spirit...to exchange a universal expression of friendliness and love, the "smile". In spite of all the pain we may undergo and the frailties of life that dictate how we must live our lives...we have power over all things...with just a smile. We all want to put our best foot forward because we care how we appear to the world.
Keep smiling

As for your looks...well...You are a very attractive lady...my thoughts and prayers are with you.
I like your bio pic & you absolutely do not look like crap
your outfit is awesome with the heels!!
but as for the insides...yes it is a terrible battle to feel
terrible & not show it...but as for me, when I feel like crap
everyone sees it. But then again sometimes I just look like crap
but feel pretty good...
