Misdirection is a coveted strategy. Do not diminish it. It forces walls to buff down and serves us what we need to survive. It could be a smile, or a scowl ;)

So hard to know a genuine smile anymore. So many are laced with pain.

Smiling when your sad is supposed to trick the body into being happy. Not other people. Science always gets it wrong lol
