Etoile,
I experience this same problem.
There are days when I cannot put a
smile on my face. What I do
is have the intention of having an
interior smile even when I don't have an
exterior smile. As the practice progresses,
the interior more often than not becomes
exterior. Not always, but more often
than not.
I frequently use this same technique when
I am walking around and I feel myself grumpy
or needing a change of attitude.
