We all have our off
days. Remember how some days nothing goes right and we fly off the handle?
Needless to say, we are not fun to be around, when in tantrum mode.
While it is okay to have
such days, what a pain in the butt you would be if you behaved that way on a regular basis.
Who would want to
interact with you, knowing only too well, that your only response to the social
etiquette of asking how you are would probably be answered with the woes of
life and the world overall?
Did you stop to think
that things could be worse? Aren’t you grateful that it isn’t so?
Yeah, I hear you
mumbling ‘Whatever! What would you know,” but trust me, I know – been there,
done that.
I have screamed and
cried to get stuff out of my system and it is amazing how wonderful it feels,
like the calm after the storm.
So really the decision
of how you react to the craziness in your life is up to you, because no matter
what, no one can make you ‘feel’ those negative or positive emotions. Your
reaction to other people or situations is yours to control.
You can choose to remain
grouchy and miserable and mess it up for yourself and everyone around you or
you can pull socks up, focus on happier thoughts and indulge in whatever you
can do to make you feel better.
We all know that nothing
is permanent. Things change, people change, circumstances change. Every morning
brings a new dawn, a new ray of hope and promise – isn’t it better to feel hopeful rather than hopeless?
At the end of the day,
the choice is yours. Which one would you choose?
