The right choice

Today I thought, enough already with the melting down and the stressing out.

Today I CHOSE to be happy!!

I started as soon as I felt the dreaded nudge from K, telling me it was time to get up.

Instead of the usual groaning and "do I really have to?", I took a minute to smile and remind myself of the new day ahead of me. A new and exciting day, if I chose to make it so.

I took it as a good sign that on my walk to work I spotted Mr Heron, down by the waters edge with the swans. I haven't seen him for ages, so that really made my morning! I also made a point of smiling at everyone I passed, which drew more wary looks than smiles back, but I didn't mind.

I didn't let anything phase me at work, and didn't even get upset when I could find nothing in my wardrobe to wear for my night out on Saturday!

In the evening I treated myself to Shelac nail polish at my favourite salon, also in preparation for Saturday, and had a good chat with the girl doing my nails, instead of sitting in silence!

All in all, today I am grateful that I remembered that I do have a choice in how I feel, and that I actively chose to be happy!

Must remember to do it again tomorrow!!

Gratefully yours.
