LIFE HAPPENING

Life is like a journey and like we know every journey does have ups and downs. I know it sounds such a cliche opening 😅 but bare with me. When we are happy we are happy and we take it in the best of spirit like it basically rocks and often our positivity radiates so much so that we actually lack control on ourselves as well, to have a vague example i had this wonderful day and i ended up walking by some stranger and guess what i kept smiling and i actually hugged that guy-AWKWARD! I know i know but guys i couldn't really help it i was really happy and basically radiated it - Agreed it does sound great and who doesn't like feeling that way! On the other hand let's take a view in a different perspective, imagine things are working out and everything is going our way basically you can't help being happy but for some small reason we are gloomy, maybe like we are just not satisfied, maybe your girlfriend is just not by your side to share this happiness,kids are away at college and you can't share things with them, you just feel incomplete and the sense of happiness which should actually be there just ain't there. How does it go? The best of things but the fowlest of moments right? So what? it's like things are working out but our mind just can't stop being negative draining out all the positivity right out of our body and rather than going and hugging a random guy we're all alone probably on our couch, bed or just outside at an isolated place maybe a quite stall in a diner or a corner of a club just sipping it out. Similarly there are bad days and everything is like spiralling down no matter how much you try you can't help it you are giving it your all but just doesn't work it can be from something like things not working out with family, friends, colleagues, a relationship just falling out of your hands no matter how desperately you are trying, not being able to meet deadlines at work or assignments, school just not going well and what not, it does pull us down our spirit it gets kicked down and it's all sorrow, almost dreadful to take and we slowly seep into depression and so on, it's like light fading away and there seems to be no end to it. Okay that honestly sounds horrible and no one ever wishes to be there but imagine everything is just as bad as it is and every thing is just the same except for our approach, rather than just sulking about all the things we take a moment for ourself. We try thinking of happy things and go to our happy place ( for those of you who are like what happy place it can be anything like anything at all starting from your child being born to the first moment you held your girlfriend/wife's hand, from the moment your parent said he's proud of you and loves you to the moment you say the same to your child hell it can be all of it at the same time anything my friend anything) when you get there, i won't say things just change everything turns out just the way you want it to. Rather it gives you a moment of happiness a small ray of light when everything seems to be closing in - HOPE! It gives you hope and optimism. No it doesn't change the way things are but rather helps you face them with re-invigorated energy something you felt was not there anymore and trust me life does get a bit better and easier 😉. Don't believe me? Next time try it.

To basically putting it into a small 2D matrix there are four situations:
1) life - positive, you - positive
2)life - negative, you - positive
3)life - postive, you - negative
4)life - negative, you - negative
Both you and me know
-> 1) is the ideal place and that's where we all want to be,
-> 2) is not ideal but better than 3) and 4) because eventually we will get to 1) as we have hope,
-> 3) we have everything yet nothing looks bright and happy you should try changing your heart/perception and you would be the happiest. Do small things grab a drink after work and talk it out with your colleagues, had an argument with family/friend spend some quality time with them talk it out, relationship is reacking havoc take a trip together, just in a fowl mood do something that makes you feel happy (for me having an ice cream in the winter usually does the trick 😜) and you will be in the ideal place,
-> 4) get your head straight buddy otherwise you are going to seep through do what 3) is doing so that you get to 2) so that you can eventually do what 2) is doing and get to 1) cause you are suffocating yourself get up and brush up and get things going buddy not for anyone else but rather for yourself you need it and deserve it.

That's pretty much it i know that was a long read and I'm sorry if i couldn't make much of a difference but please do think about it and i hope all of is are in that ideal place we wish to be in. For anyone who needs me I'm right here with you guys! Drop in a text anytime you want I'll surely get back to you.
Finally, thanks for all your time and support guys! Stay happy! Good luck! =)
