Have you ever gotten to a point where something gets you so upset the only thing u can do is crack a smile? I don't mean a smile because your happy or something great was about to happen. But smiling to avoid doing something you would truly regret in the future. Smiling to hold all of your frustrations and anguish in. Smiling to hope maybe you had heard wrong and that person didn't just screw you over, or break your heart, or even mean to make you cry.
Yes my friends, that face, that smile, that action is the exact moment when devastation kicks in. The moment where you have reached a level of piss offed-tivity that you have to laugh or smile to keep from going off the deep end. That moment where if that person was trying to strike a nerve with you they finally found it. And that moment sucks donkey balls. You try with every fiber in your being to do everything right and make everything better but you just can't deal with it any longer. The moment when you have to laugh to keep from crying, you feel like your world has ended, your dog just died, and your parents have been shot. And for one instance you have a sliver of false hope that you might actually be alright if I can just manage to smile.
But the thing is nothing that that person, circumstance, or occurrence can do to you to make u break down completely. The reason for that is because whatever doesn't make you ultimately can't break you and you aren't built to break. You can make it through any situation you get put in and whatever won't kill you will make you stronger. These all sound like cliched sayings but they are ultimately true, and sometimes the hope that things will be ok is all you have to keep you going. So until then...
'...Keep calm and carry on'
