Happiness

I went to the cinema to watch the coolest movie of the time, I came back feeling like something more.
I went to have ice cream to fill the void.
I called on my friends to comfort me.
I slept expecting to be shown some light, maybe in my dreams.

Nothing happened and the sadness prevailed.

I allowed myself to do something- call in my friends who needed me more, call my sister and ask how she was doing, expected the best and miracles in my own life.I did what i could in my state, sought more talents in my life, did many new things, one at a time.
I stopped advertising my problems as a burden and bore them all, they are always there from yesterdays. I noticed that writing them down meant that when I need to solve a  problem today I don't have to look much but turn a few pages back for my own advice- my own well of experience. It is the imperfections, the little things that we often  miss that can make us feel as unique and Real as we are.

If you feel sad-do something, not to remove the sadness but to shift your focus. If you love pity parties like some of us-write it down for some time later and use  your  emotional emergency kit (something simple, but you love and enjoy,to remind you that there is bliss right now )and focus on something else as small or as big as you like. Help someone who may need you more, use your smarts and talents. Seek help from people who can really help-not from your naturally lean friend when you want to lose weight(avoid advertising) but the one who lost some, that lady at the gym...

Secret: *Allow yourself to shift your focus and sooner or later your emotions will follow.*
          
Radiating love to all of you...
