jackpot.

jackpot.
this quote summed up my emotions of the last few days, 
into one perfect quote.

lately i feel as though, my days have been a little hectic;
a little too busy, a little too long and a little on the repetitive side.
i've been coming home feeling exhausted, yet satisfied.
i couldn't quite figure out why i was in a weird funk of emotions-
until i read this quote, and suddenly it was like i won the jackpot.
i now understand why my feelings of stress and tiredness 
can coexist with my feelings of happiness and energy. 
there is so much truth in
"every day may not be a good...
 but, there is something good in every day."
too quickly, i come home at night and judge my entire day off the emotions
i am feeling at that very moment. stupidity, right?
of course, when i get home from dance every night after 9-
i can only expect to be exhausted, hungry and overwhelmed.
so, when lovebird asks how my day went, i simply reply with an "okay".
i often vent, complain and sometimes even cry.
but, after reading this quote- 
even though my day, as a whole, may not have been that 
exciting, rewarding, joyous or easy...
there is at least one good thing that happened, that i can reflect upon. 
it can be a simple things. 
it can be a big event.
it can be something that you least expected to happen.
it can be someone. 
it can be anything really.

the good news is, my friends,
there will always be at least one good thing in our day. 
it's bound to happen. 
so, i've decided to look at my days a little differently  now.
i'm going to remember that,
 even if my day doesn't turn out to be the best of days,
i will always find the goodness in that day and smile big.

  4. I tend to do that too- base the whole day off of what I am feeling the minute I get home. This can be bad if something happened to throw off the day, even if the majority of the day was good, so I'm trying to change that. Focussing on the positive is a great idea. After all, if you act the way you want to feel...pretty soon it is the way you actually feel.
