I'm getting older so I've started to smile more, because I want the crow's feet to go up.

The speaker reframes a common anxiety about aging—wrinkles—as something that can be shaped by attitude and habit. “Crow’s feet” are typically treated as an unwanted sign of time, but she chooses to make them evidence of smiling rather than worry or bitterness. Wanting them “to go up” suggests an intentional preference for joy, warmth, and openness, even as the body changes. The line also carries a quiet defiance toward beauty norms: instead of trying to erase age, she embraces it and aims to let her face record happiness. It’s a small, witty philosophy of aging well through chosen expression.
