When You Feel Like A Mess, Remind Yourself That There Is Always A Rainbow After The Storm
Bad days shouldn't keep you from living your life
One of the hardest things that I can do is remember that I don't have a bad life, you just had a bad five minutes. Days can get exhausting through the same old interactions with all the same people, your coworkers, family, and maybe even friends. It seems like nothing will ever change. I'm here to tell you that it will change. What you think won't ever be different and the job you have that you hate won't ever change. It can change, but that has to start with you.
I know that I'm more pessimistic by nature and I'm not really sure why, but I have to remind myself that God's got it. He knows everything that's going to happen and I'm so glad because honestly, I couldn't handle knowing my future. That just freaks me out. I know that my life is good, great actually, but I need to constantly remind myself that I'm doing good. Otherwise, I'll forget the end goal and disregard the relationships, career, mindset, and goals that I've been working towards.
God didn't give me this life to sit around and mope about what I don't have, but He gave me this life to be thankful for what I do have. Complaining and being angry won't change anything and of course, we all have days where nothing is going right but those are the times we need to look up, breathe, and slow it down. Not everything is going to be perfect all the time. How would that look if things were always perfect?
If everything was perfect in my life, I wouldn't have any relationships with people and I wouldn't know how to relate to anyone but myself. Be thankful for the mess you're in but don't stay there. Ask God for help and embrace your life for the beautiful mess it is.
I promise you it's not a bad life, you just had a bad five minutes.
