on smiling

Little cherubs exist, they’re called toddlers and babies, they are magnificent and so full of energy. They have smiles that in a millisecond spread across their whole face, and you instantly have no control over your facial reflexes- your face muscles out of nowhere grab your whole skin and lift them like a pro weightlifter champion with a barbell up above its head …and you are smiling with your whole face. For a very brief moment you are looking almost exactly like that cherub in front of you. You forget that it takes a ridiculous amount of different muscles just to smile.
