OK i thought i would say this as i constantly see on this board and hear from my friends and family they say life is shit or that they hate life or they're depressed.
Now i admit i once went through a time where i was depressed as some of you know but over the past few months i have gained a new perspective on life. When going into work every morning i am always smiling saying hello to everyone and just being positive when i'm around those who aren't so cheerful or aren't in a smiling mood.
Seriously look at it this way if you wake up every morning thinking something along the lines of "God i hate my job" or "God i hate life" then more than likely your day will be a bad one. When you're constantly negative around other people they are generally brought down by your attitude but if you're in a positive mood then other people are brought up by your attitude.
I, as some of you will also know i used to get real pissed off by insults about my disability, sexuality or just about certain aspects of my looks or personality but because i've turned into a more positive person i basically go by the old school Sticks & Stones saying and infact i will direct the same insults i used to get towards myself because all they are is words and words can't kill me.
I used to also be real shy and i mean really fucking shy to an extent where i wouldn't look anybody i didn't know in the eye and i wouldn't say anything to anyone until they said something to me first, but since i've become more positive in life the shyness has near enough disappeared although i do still have my moments lol.
I've now got a thing that i do every morning where i wake up and no matter my feelings of the morning i still do this and it works. I get up, look myself in the mirror, smile and say "today will be another good day" and automatically that smile stays with me all day.
Over the past few months although at times i will still have my down times and my serious moments i will never let them ruin my day like i used to and also in the past i have become more open minded as i admit i used to have a sort of racist, stereotypical, judgmental side to me (I was far from being a Nazi or a Klan member) but since i've become a more positive and confident person i've come to know that some of my stereotypical images in my mind are wrong and i realize that now and it makes me a better person because of it.
So here's my advice to you, those of the depressed and down low section of society take these words and either just ignore them and forget them or take them on board and try and apply them to your life because trust me it worked a hell of alot for me.
A happy life and a positive life doesn't just fall out of the sky and hit you, you have to take it upon yourself to uplift yourself from your sadness and say "You know what life aint so bad." and just at the risk of sounding cheesy or corny. Turn that Frown upside down and trust me your life will change.
Peace.
