On the meaning of a smile

    Of all my cases, the one that is the most touching and inspiring is the case of a girl who has gone through much in her relationships and also faces the possibility of losing one of her five senses. I have learnt a lot in her sharing of her experiences and among these lessons was one that made me reconsider what a smiling and a laugh could mean to someone in constant pain.

I once believed that people who have to force themselves to smile do it because they don’t want to acknowledge their sorrows or show them to others. However, this case allowed me to understand that such smiling and laughing could also mean that that person is trying their best to move on and to be optimistic about the current situation.

I lost my grandma on my birthday last year and my grandpa had just passed away this year. It was very painful, but it was even more heartbreaking to see my mother’s pain from the loss. The mourning process was not easy and although my mother showed her sadness, she still remained positive. Although she cried a lot, a warm smile would always be on her face when we talk about my late grandparents. It was not until then, along with the mentioned case, that I realized that it is possible to smile even when our hearts hurt.

Although such a smile could be an active attempt to hide their pain, I was once too shallow to appreciate that such a smile could have deeper and more profound implications. When I think about this I begin to realize that even if they were to wear a smile as a protective layer to keep others from their worries and pains, does it really matter or affect us as therapists?

In the past, I may attempt to make them understand the meaning behind their smiles as a pain-avoidance mechanism because I think that would be better for them. But this also reminds me that therapists are not almighty and we certainly cannot make them do what we think is best for them – worse, we should not believe that we know their situation better than them.

In this way, I feel that I should be looking for those blind-spots with them rather than for them since it is only in cooperation that therapists could expect to fully understand. Here then, it is important that we understand the personal reasons behind a smile instead of applying a template of assumptions that prescribe to our clients what we know that smile really means.

It has been 9 years ... I still think of you from time to time.. Although I can still see your face in my mind, I cant seem to remember your voice anymore...  Two of your favorite songs for you...

~As the deer~
As the deer panteth for the water
So my soul longeth after thee
You alone are my hearts desire
And I long to worship thee

Chorus
You alone are my strength my shield
To You alone may my spirit yield
You alone are my hearts desire
And I long to worship thee

You're my friend and You are my brother,
Even though you are a king.
I love you more thank any other,
So much more than anything.

I want You more than gold or silver,
Only You can satisfy.
You alone are the real joy Giver,
And the apple of my eye.

 ~Make Me A Servant~

Make me a servant

Humble and meek

LORD let me lift up those who are weak

And may the prayer of my heart

Always be

Make me a servant

Make me a servant

Make me a servant...to-day.

How are you doing up there, dear? =*)
