It is so fascinating how we associate expressions with faces and, in turn define a person overall.
How is it that we almost never forget faces of people we know for too long?
Oh well, although faces do change over time; that doesn’t seem to deter much.
Lets say you do not see the faces of your loved ones for a significant amount of time. And then, you see them in front of you. How do you react when that happens?
Just imagine when this happened to you, and you get a smile on your face.
You are now thinking of those faces.
It may happen that, humans feel one thing but their faces express something else altogether. But, that isn’t necessarily a fault. It is just the way they work.
We generally associate this to be a bad thing, but it may come in handy at times.
Like for example, a struggler (in any field) tends to go through ups & downs constantly; but he/she chooses to keep a brave face & doesn’t let worries/tensions seep through.
Yes, Sometimes faces are strange.
Faces are adaptable too.
“Put on a brave face and, keeping going”, they say.
And this comes to each and everyone.
We do put on a brave face & feel it, but it is still the same face, isn’t it?
Another strange thing is, it is often believed that you look at a person's heart, not his/her appearance.
Once you start liking a person in that way, don’t you start loving the face.
No other good heart works for you then, without that lovely face! #foodforthought
All said and done, I believe our parents faces are the most pure ones & the smile on those bright faces, Just Priceless!
Those are the faces which you see for the first time when you enter this world.
You do not have any memory of that, but just imagine how it would feel to access those memories.
Those faces are indeed engraved on your mind.
"Faces are to humans, what bar-codes are to Products..
But scanning those bar-codes, may not always yield whatever the packaging says.."

P.S.: This is how my complex thoughts work. And, this is just something I thought about while my flight was taking off & I was on the way back home from a tiring trip.
Air traveling alone, gives some time for me to self-reflect & contemplate about life.
Well, I have a notepad handy, always! :D
