Today was a bad day. A really bad day. And as I’m writing this it’s probably going to be a new day but I’m currently in bed at 9:30pm reflecting on my day and decided to just go on and write since well, this is my space to vent and maybe a few of you can relate here and there.
To be honest, I don’t know what happened. Nothing? Everything? Who knows but it was just one of those days that you want to be over before it even began, you know what I mean? I guess we all have those once in a while and I’m realizing I need to take a deep breath and move on with it because dwelling doesn’t get us anywhere.
While I was sitting here reflecting I thought to myself, I know I’m not alone and well if anyone else has been or is feeling in the same boat I am today, I’d love to offer a little pick-me-up if I can. So here are a few things to remember when you’re having a bad day. Trust me, after telling myself these things tonight I find that I can hopefully sleep sound and wake up happier tomorrow.
1 – No one promised life would be perfect.
Well, that’s for damn sure.
2 – There is a lesson in every struggle.
Stressing out, as hard as it is to tell myself this, won’t make you feel any better. If you look for a small lesson in every struggle you might be able to make positive changes that will prevent similar situations in the future.
3 – Without hard times, you wouldn’t appreciate the good ones.
Failure is nothing but part of the process in life.
4 – It’s OK to cry sometimes.
Ok, I may follow this one from time to time. Or all the time. But hey, not even ashamed to say it. Crying is not a sign of weakness but in my opinion, it is a way to let go of upset feelings.
5 – It will pass.
One thing I try to remind myself when I’m having a hard time – not everything in life is permanent. No matter what you are going through now, it will pass. Time has the ability to heal all wounds even when it seems as though they never will. There will always be a new day with new possibilities.
6 – You are not a victim.
I feel like sometimes when one thing goes wrong we make ourselves out to be the victim and tell ourselves the world is out to get us and thats why everything is going wrong. We all have bad days but you are not the victim – it’s just a shitty day.
Overall tomorrow is a new day and like I said above with that means new possibilities. This is just a little reminder that life online isn’t always as picturesque as people sometimes make it out to be and we all have just as terrible days the rest of us.
Love you guys,
