Wake up on the wrong side of the bed one morning and the whole day is ruined. Then one bad thing comes after another like a vicious series of bad events that never end. Who have not had that kind of day?
Since the mind is the most powerful muscle to my emotion being, a way to manoeuvre away from that vicious sequence is by maneuvering away from sulking into negative thinking - by cheering myself up and count little blessings. It is a skill to acquire, and I am learning to acquire it slowly
Yesterday was supposed to be shopping day, i was supposed to wake up early, to have an early start, be home early for the icebreaking potluck later that night. but I went to bed late, woke up with huge bags under my eyes, trains were suspended, didn't have time for breakfast... For a million seconds, I almost jump to the conclusion that today was gonna be really bad and tiring. So I've got to do what I've got to do. Make a list of little things that make me smile.
- Sips of orange juice with bits
- Bottled frappucino
- Free replacement busses
- Unexpectedly discounted shoes
- Shopping buddy
- Smell of coffee whilst resting my feet at Costa
- Pinkberry
- Empty stomach, holes in the pocket but later that night, potluck. (Free n yummy dinner)
- Compliments on the tiramisu that I made
- Nicely captured pictures
- Receiving long lost hugs
- Wedding invites
- Seeing your married friends being very happy
- 'Three musketeers'
- Freshers who remind you of how fast time has flied
- Skype session
PS: oh no, Monday coming so soon.
