Today is Tuesday already and Monday passed by quickly. The weeks are rolling by quickly and fall will soon be here. Our weather has already given us a preview of fall temperatures as it dipped into the 40's a couple of evenings and daytime highs in the 70's. It has been humid and cloudy on and off, but the rain showers have moved all around us. The yard is starting to look like straw and the need for mowing has come to a stop. It has been a strange summer as far as the weather is concerned.
The weather has a way of effecting our moods. I am a sunshine girl. I'll take it over rain and gloom any day. I like feeling happy and being surrounded by happy people. It makes you feel good if people smile at you or treat you with kindness. I am a believer that if you keep practicing gratitude and looking to the positive side of life, you can change your world. Sometimes we need help from others if we get in a funk. If you feel depressed please don't hesitate to ask for help. I have at times in my own life felt on the sad side, but I found out that with the help of trained professionals and a commitment to myself I can be happy. Sometimes we need a tune up just like our cars. Health care professionals can help your brain run smoothly with a tailored plan that meets one's own personal needs. Wouldn't life be beautiful if everyone took themselves in for regular tune up of their mind.
I had a comment last week in regards to my post about setting our personal differences aside. The comment was in regards to how people sleep at night after treating people badly. Well I guess in response to that comment, they must not have a conscience. They probably don't care how they treat others, because they are full of pain in regards to their own life. Perhaps they need a tune up. I have been there myself. Sometimes we all get a little tired or over worked and find that everything gets annoying to us. We need to have respect for our own bodies and step back and take a break. I think that most people who have taken the time to rest and look out for themselves will project a kind attitude to others. None of us are perfect and sometimes life throws us a curve ball. We either except that we need help to take care of our self, or we risk hurting others around us.
I know that for myself I have apologized to some people for my own insensitive remarks at times. We all have bad days. It is true that we remember the bad things in life or how poorly someone treats us. Try to change those thoughts by being positive and help others see you as a caring human being.
I guess the old saying is true that saying you are sorry will help mend a broken heart. It starts with yourself forgiveness and extends to all those around you.
I am not perfect and sometimes I find myself feeling sad, but what matters is that I know how to chase those blues away. I know how to say I am sorry and I know that I can not change others, but I can make the decision to walk away. It is up to each individual to take responsibility for their own actions. Live your life as exclamation and not a period. Your life can be filled with happiness when you take care of yourself.
So whoever left the comment, I hope you are at peace yourself and living a life of happiness. And to the people who treat us badly, we pray for them and hopefully they will learn to take care of themselves, so they can sleep peacefully also.
Life is beautiful and full of sunshine when we take care of ourselves !!
