Not Always Pleasant! Hmp
I’m not the kind of person who is always pleasant, smiling, ever friendly and saintly with a halo on her head. Nope, if you’re looking for someone like that, you’re not talking to the right person.
That doesn’t mean that I’m bad, that I don’t smile and that I couldn’t be warm. I am warm and sympathetic most of the time, and I have a good smile that could really brighten up your day. But what I’m saying is that I’m not always like that. There are times when I get upset, when I cry, when I get frustrated and sick and angry for things I couldn’t understand.
Times like that come, times such as today. Today is not my day, I feel terrible, even miserable that I wanted to go home and just hide inside my cave. I don’t know, I must have exhausted my energy. I must have had too much. I need to rest and get recharged. I just need to vent out all of these negative energies.
There are certain things we don’t want, things we detest, and I guess there’s nothing wrong with acknowledging our feelings about them. Whenever we recognize the things we don’t want, we get a clearer vision of the things we truly want in our life. In a certain way, we let go of the façade of being happy where we are not happy.
I’m sorry to those who expect an inspirational post for today, but sometimes, I just want to be truthful rather than play the saint that I am not. Thanks for dropping by. There will be a better day.
