See, the thing is, I do not care, at all, who your character is, what he/she is doing, and I care even less about what you personally like or do not like.
I DO care about my character. My character has reactions. IRL, do you EVER automatically know what someone is feeling/hearing/seeing? No, you don't. Even if someone screams, you cannot be sure that it was a terrified scream, or a scream of pleasure, or shock, etc. Your example automatically assumes that I'm some sort of telepath or empath, able to read your mind and know what you are feeling. I don't. You smiling into the sunset has absolutely nothing to do with me. How do I know that you're not smiling into the sunset because you've just gotten custody of your children?
