Hello great ladies of hive, happy new months to you all, it is a lovely weekend and I hope you all are making wonderful plans ahead of December which is just some days away.
Welcome to my blog once again, today I would love to answer one of the questions for this week #209 contest which is "What makes you smile when you’re having a bad day?" it is actually a very simple question that would help us to look inwards and discover that unique thing or being that pull us back together when we feel down.
Obviously at some points in our lives, we are faced with so many challenges that may try to pull us down, the drain our energy and dampen our mood, most times we get depressed and remain sad for sometime, some days are full of disappointments, often times we wake up and everything seems to go out of plan and so we end up having a bad day. Life is indeed unpredictable but the funny part of it is that in all of these challenges we face, there are things, people, hobbies, etc that can lift our spirit and bring happiness.
However I have experienced sad moments lots of time and some things makes me smile whenever I am faced with those sad moments.
In most of the moments I feel down, my friends stir up the smile in me, the make me feel valued, their kind words of encouragements, little support, their cruise, their vibes and their positive energy most times make me smile. The people that surrounds you have a way of making you smile or cry, surround yourself with people that can get your back when you are about slipping.
Secondly, I discovered that I often time feel sad and down whenever I feel I am not enough, Like there is this feeling that comes up, it makes me feel I have lots of task to carry out but I am just wandering round the circle without accomplishing anything, I would always have this feeling that I am not growing, at that point I feel lost and incomplete.
In moments like this, people words of encouragements no longer matters, all I need to do to brighten up my mood and smile is to do something valuable, at this point I need to work on myself, I need to accomplish something no matter how little it may seem to be, to learn something new is all my mind yearns for at such moments, and when I finally learn something, or achieve a thing, or do something valuable to myself I feel inner joy from within and that makes me smile.
Most times if I have bad day and want to smile or laugh and forget the present situations, I would watch funny memes and videos that would make me laugh, funny enough it works, actually It makes me feel that smile or laughter is contagious, that is one strategy to brightening up my mood in a bad day. Besides funny videos watching Korean drama also help, I just have this special love for K-dramas that watching them makes feel happy and curious about certain things.
Lastly, whenever I feel low and I try to be of help or render help to people in my own little way, it makes me feel happy. Some little act of kindness towards people also influences our mood.
These are some of the few things that make me smile whenever I have a bad day, people have different things and strategy that brightens up their mood in a bad day, just try and figure out what makes you smile and keep doing it, it could be a source of your happiness.
