  • Smile though your heart is aching
    Smile even though it's breaking
    When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
    If you smile through your fear and sorrow
    Smile and maybe tomorrow
    You'll see the sun come shining through for you
    Light up your face with gladness
    Hide every trace of sadness
    Although a tear may be ever so near
    That's the time you must keep on trying
    Smile, what's the use of crying?
    You'll find that life is still worthwhile
    If you just smile
    That's the time you must keep on trying
    Smile, what's the use of crying?
    You'll find that life is still worthwhile
    If you just smile

    I chose this for my beloved husband's funeral 5 days ago. We met aged 17 and had 35 wonderful years together, married for 25 years. I'll miss him always but must carry on and smile,.

    This is my mother's song. She died, to my way of thinking, much too young......... "....Although a tear may be ever so near; that's the time you must keep on trying. Smile what's the use of crying, you'll find that life is still worth, if you just smile." How often in all the years since her passing have the lyrics, the music and this unique rendition of Nat King Cole's, kept me going in my most lonliest of moments. The beauty of her soul continues to endue.

    When my first love - I 15 1/2, he 19 1/2 on leave from the Navy 1966 - four years later we ended it before the wedding date - my mother sang this to me (she had a beautiful voice) - telling me I'll love again someday. Recently I learned he passed away and I find so many memories flooding me. Yes, we truly were in love - young love but time changed him (drugs) - took me over 25 yrs to meet a man that I loved as deeply. That was 22 years ago and life is good. Still this song brings up that sorrow over my first love. Bless him.

      Hi sorry to hear about your depression. My son went thru a bout of depression but thank God he us delivered from that pain. Identify what's making you depressed, what ticks it off, if u can identify when that happens, that's the area u need to work on. Find someone who can support n counsel u in that area of depression. It's hard to forgive when u hurt most n set people and yourself free. It can torment you for years. Choose to release n forgive, break the bond ages in your life, ur insecurities etc. It's deep but as the peels come off. U become freer
