How do you react when you have a bad day? For me, I usually sink in the weight of the anger and sadness, allowing myself to feel how I want for as long as I want. When that is done, I think of what I am thankful for, and like sun shining through the clouds, I allow myself to smile.

that is a good attitude. I had a dreadful day today, felt much like you did, but now I am thinking of the good things and feeling happier. Someone should write a poem about it 🙂

This reminds me of Bukowski, who used to lock himself in a hotel room and wallow in his pity with drinks. Then he’d come out of the bender feeling good for a while. Anyway, thanks for this post!

I too have learned in recent times that it’s okay to stay in that moment you so aptly described: “…sink in the weight of the anger and sadness, allowing myself to feel how I want for as long as I want…” Until I’m ready to be “…thankful for, and like sun shining…allow myself to smile” again. Thanks for so simply but so correctly pointing this out here. Couldn’t agree more!

That’s a good way to react- embracing your emotions but also moving past them. I usually act in a similar way. I feel sad or angry or whatever I’m feeling and then I meditate to calm myself down and get into a more positive headspace.

Thank you so much! I always found people who ignore their emotions struggle with it later. I think we need that time to recognize how we feel before we can move on😊 I am glad you have found your way to that🥰
