Sad? Had a bad day?
Don't worry! I'm here to try and brighten up your day!
Do me a favor, sit back and think of that one time you brought a smile to your parents' faces. Maybe because you did something that made them proud. You can see it in their eyes you know? That is the purest form of love. They love without ever expecting. And you were able to do something that made them smile. Feel happy about that!
Think about the last time you had a blast with your friends. Now, the real friends and the real fun, not the fake pretend to be friends and fun okay? Think about how different your life would be without them. Think about all the funny moments you've had with them. The surprise birthday party, the confession times, the "I met you after so long" hugs, the little pieces of advice they gave you or sometimes just their presence. You know they've got your back. SO, be happy! (PS. give them a call, will you?)
Think about your love now. It may be your husband/wife, boyfriend/girlfriend or even that little crush you have on someone. See how their mere presence can put a smile on your face? You love them, even with all the fights, all the trust issues, the impossible situations. You love them and you know they do too.The way they look at you, make you feel better about yourself and give you hope. They're the love for your lives and you know you have somebody by your side. So, smile :)
Now go back to the last time you were close to Mother Nature. It may be a trek, a walk on the beach, a night under the stars, anything. Think about the serenity, the kind of calm you experienced. Don't you wish you could freeze the moment and stay like that forever? Mother Nature has its own ways, it clears your mind, makes you feel like you are a part of something bigger. Relive that moment. It is your escape from the horrors of the real world. Smile. :)
And finally, stand up and look at what you see in the mirror. Look at your reflection. You have taken care of this body for all the years you've lived. You are so strong. Every time you fell down, you had the courage to pick yourself up and fight again. All the millions of cells in your body, they exist just to take care of you. Embrace yourself and appreciate your life and existence. Be happy :)
I know there are many things you're not satisfied with, you're unhappy about. But it's okay, because there are even more reasons you should be happy about. It was just a bad day, it is not a bad life. So take it easy and BE HAPPY.
( If you did read till the end, I hope this was the one reason that made you smile today)
