We all have our ups and our downs. And both are necessary to keep things in perspective. After all, we could not appreciate the sunshine without a rainy day! Some days are jam packed, and I can’t seem to get ahead. Other days seem to kind of drag by. No matter what kind of day it is, though, I try to focus on the positive things. I think keeping a healthy mind and spirit are critical to wellness, and wellness is an important value of mine. As a mother, I think it is super important to keep healthy and to be a good role model for the children. Focusing on the positive is a good way to keep a positive vibe for the kids. I don’t remember who said these wise words, but it sure works: “If you aren’t happy, fake it, and before you know it you have convinced yourself that you are happy”. It also brings to mind one of my favorite Dilbert quotes:
Accept that some days you are the pigeon, and some days you are the statue.
Dilbert
I try to approach every day as the pigeon! Sure the statue days happen. And if they didn’t, I would not appreciate when I am the pigeon!
