Why don't people smile more often?

Maybe it's because I've been sick most of my life that I gained a different perspective but I'm pretty much always smiling but I swear everyone is always so serious😔 Why?

people who seem to have everything also seem to think its all them, and they have no clue how blessed they are
A disability ,or poor health and accident ,it can all be taken away so quickly ,
then they learn as I did ,hard to be Mr Macho man when you can't even wipe your own rear ,God forbid they loose a child ,a mate ,life changes on a dime .
So the saying "you don't know what you got till its gone " is a phrase most Americans at least take for granted ,well except those who have lost and now are just happy to still be alive .
Its sad dear and I hear you ,
even more so ,I grew up in a different world and I mean that ,when I was a kid there was not divorce ,Moms raised kids Dad worked (not mine but the good ones )no cops were needed in schools ,no metal detectors and Xray at the court house ,,
Sept 11 was designed to strike terror and change our way of life
We say we showed them ,Did we ?
So add the high risk life and the already hard hearts ,and here we are
But Hey there is hope ,if we all start with ourselves to say I am not taking it anymore ,and just be nice ,maybe we can start a movement ,the 70's started somewhere (I know to protest Vietnam ) LOL
If everyone would go to a Vocational Rehabilitation Center
and see the real handicapped ,mentally challenged ,disabled and deformed people who go to work everyday ,wanting to be productive members of society ,
maybe some ,not all but some ,would have a better perspective
Thank you dear for being nice ,the world needs more like you
So from a spark we can light a candle ,and one candle can light many
take your candle ,go light your world
