positivism,

It’s not enough to smile when you are pleased. It is optimism or positivism. When in suffering, you cannot smile.

Smile when you understand suchness. That is when you can smile both with happiness and sadness. It is a smile that is beyond all worldly matters. This kind of smile is very reliable. You should practice it very seriously, and you will be able to cope with all changes in nature.
