Day 122

Day 122: I have a confession: sometimes, some days, I'm not happy. I usually try to put on a good front...partially because I know that the bad feelings I may be experiencing at that moment won't last, and partially because it's just easier. I would imagine that most of us have that protective layer on the outside that is what most people see every day...and some days, like this morning for me, it's just too tough to keep up the act. I had a challenging morning today. It just seemed like all kinds of issues were just building up one on top of another, and before I'd even left for work I had a little cry at my kitchen table. I often find that a little cry can release tension and makes me feel worlds better, but even that wasn't enough to bring balance to the force today. Anyway I made my way to the campus, and just as I was passing a Friends office in our hallway she called out and asked how I was today. Well...that was all the nudge I needed. I went in and told her of my troubles, had another little cry, and she listened and shared with me. Later, we went out for lunch and shared some tasty apps and some laughs. I have another confession: some days I have to work hard to find a "Happy" to share. Some days it almost feels like a chore, or that it's just going through the motions. Today though, that lunch date with that Friend honestly made a huge difference in my day. It truly made me very happy. So thanks, Friend. You rock, I appreciate you, and today you gave me my Happy. #365happydays
