It used to drive me absolutely bonkers
I'd just be sitting there relaxing
minding my own business and it would
seem like people were always asking me
Keva you okay what's wrong and I get
frustrated what's wrong nothing's wrong
I'm just relaxing mining my own business
what's wrong as you keep asking me
what's wrong I'm fine
I never quite understood that until one
day I took a good look at my passport
photo and it all became clear here in
Ontario Canada we have these things
called health cards they're kind of like
a driver's license but every now and
then were asked to show them when we
visit a doctor's office or a clinic or
someplace like that and that happened to
me recently and when I looked at the
photo on my health card I was horrified
I was embarrassed and when I handed it
over to the receptionist I said please
don't take this photo and the expression
on it as indicative of how I feel about
my visit here you know the kind of photo
you've probably got one on your driver's
license or on your passport you know
those photos where you're not allowed to
smile or even put the corners of your
mouth up even just the slightest little
bit your resting face and I don't know
what your resting face looks like but
mine at least on my passport looks like
it's going to be really bad news if we
let this guy in into the country the
resting face to do that and to just look
rested and not maniacal it's hard to do
you know the look
you
resting face chief there's got to be a
way to do it so that you don't look like
a convicted killers mugshot when you're
just sitting there doing nothing at
least now I'm aware of it and no wonder
people used to ask me keV what's wrong
and are you okay and I can leave at
least one of the corners of my mouth
slightly upturned this so it gives a
little bit better impression as for
going into other countries and crossing
international borders there's not much I
can do about the requirements of those
photos but at least I can smile and let
those people know I know how it looks
but really I am quite happy to be here

please or I'll go back into resting face
and for daily coaching and support come
