I'm writing this letter to whom it may concern...
I probably shouldn't be writing this now because I am in a bad mood. More like a state of displeasure. Maybe the doldrums or a fit of pique. It is cold and snowing outside and I am feeling irritable.
Will I have to cancel my classes again tomorrow? If I do, I won't be the only one suffering a depression. My class won't be able to exercise which will release the endorphins that create a good mood and feelings of well-being. We won't be able to meet with our friends and socialize which produces happiness, bliss, and exhilaration!
My mood is also glum because I haven't seen my daughter Jessica since October when she moved out of state. It might be petty, but I need to be with my girls or I become vexed with my circumstances. I begin to pout, nag, and generally become a *itch. You just ask my husband...he'll tell you!
So what can I do to get out of this ill temper? I'm doing it right now. Yes, writing is helping to blow away this blue mood. I'm feeling relief and a sense of lightness as I confess my annoyances. I'm reaching a state of contentment and dare I say, euphoria. If you could see my face, you would see a slight smile, a little upward curve at the corners of my mouth.
I hope you can find something that lightens your mood and brings you joy on a gloomy day too.
