I am on my down day, a special reminder, that there are always ups and downs

I hate to admit it, but a person can not always be happy. If we were, we would not know what happiness is, and therefore we would not appreciate it. It is a funny thing that human beings need to experience all the emotions of the spectrum. There is hate and love that are the opposites, but to get from one to another you just need to take a small step.

It seems so complicated, how fast a persons mood can go from zero to one hundred or the other way around. And sometimes you don't even have a reason. It is just a feeling that takes over. It is not that there is a need to have a reason. As I said, if there were no down days, we would not know what happiness is.

It is all about choices. What we make out of ourselves. And most important is about how we see ourselves and the world around us. It is a choice to see the world around us gray. I know, because I used to make that choice, to not see the light side of the coin. Somebody who doesn't see ones self as worthy will rarely be seen by others in any other way. And it is sad, but you can make a change starting with yourself. I know people who constantly live in the gray, their lives are not bad, bat they don't see the good, or they are not willing to make the change.

It is hard to make a change, humans are creatures of habit, but is it worth living a grim life? Now, I am not talking about depression, that is an illness, you can't just change that, that is not a choice, but a disease. I am talking about things in your everyday life that make you unhappy. Not changing your circumstances is your own fault, blaming others will be the exit, but in a long run it is just going to create more problems.

So I will go out, make new choices and change the gray stuff in my life, but time after time I will let in a gloomy day in my mind, just a reminder of how I do not want to feel, to always strive for the better and brighter.

Have a great day, whoever is reading and if there is a bad day, remember, they all can not be the same way, there will be a day when you will have your cake and eat it, too.
