Be happy

March 16, 2012

Have you ever felt like absolutely nothing is going the way you want it to go? What did you do? Did you just give up? Or did you try to figure out what was going on?

This has been what's happened with me lately. I've been really sad these past few weeks and nothing seemed to go good. At all. I kinda gave up. I mean, yeah, I really wanted to be happy and all, but it got to the point where I just honestlly didn't care anymore.

I was talking to someone recently and they told me to either go find a friend to talk to or just go write down all your feelings in a journal. I though about that for a while and I was like, yeah, that's a really good idea.

The next day, I was talking to a friend of mine in class and it just so happened that we felt the exact same way. We talked about it for a while and suddenly, I felt a whole lot better. I went throughout my week, still feeling down, but I was a smiling just a little more.

I also started writing things down in a journal. I sat down one night and wrote about 4 pages, just to get everything out. It felt soo good. Like, this may sound weird, but words can't even begin to describe how good it felt. I also think that reading the Bible helps to make you happier and things go better.

Right now, I'm still a little sad, but I have such great friends who are getting me through. So, if you feel this way, or have ever felt this way, try doing what I said. Grab someone you feel comfortable talking to. Vent. Write in a notebook. Read the Bible. PRAY.

"Yet I am always with you; you take hold of my right hand. With all your counsel you guide me, and at the end, recieve me with honor. Whom else have I in the heavens? None beside you delights me on earth. Though my flesh and my heart fail, God is the rock of my heart, my portion forever." --- Psalm 73:23-26 <3
