"A veces tu alegría es la fuente de tu sonrisa, pero a veces tu sonrisa puede ser la fuente de tu alegría."

Simplified Meaning:

When something makes you happy, it naturally puts a smile on your face. For example, imagine you get a surprise gift from a friend—this makes you feel joyful, and you smile. But it also works the other way around. If you smile, even if you're not feeling particularly happy at the moment, that simple act can actually make you start to feel better. Think about a time when you were feeling down, and someone told you a joke, making you laugh. That laugh lifted your spirits, right? The idea here is that smiling can help you feel happier, even if you didn't feel that way to begin with. So, if you're having a tough day, try smiling at yourself in the mirror, and you might find that it's easier to feel positive.
