Everyday we wake up. Takein a deep breath and wish in our guts that today would be way better than the usual. I for one wish that for every morning of every day. But then what? Rain still falls on my wonderful parade and darkness creeps in through the light. What happened to my wish? Did it even count as a possibility?
I go home. Shoulders-shrugged. Eyes drooped six feet below the ground. “This is hopeless. I. Am. Hopeless.” My ever confident interjection coz my day didn’t go the way I wished it would have gone.
Who should I blame for the rain? Who should I blame for the creeping of darkness in such a perfect day? There must be someone [or something] out there whom I can blame, right?
But wait. Oh! Wait!
I face the mirror. Look deep into my pitiful stature through my ever droopy tired eyes. “Gosh! Ilook so ugly! No wonder my day turned out the way that it did, I’m a MESS!”
Now, that’s clear. I should blame my awful day to my ever awful look. At least that one’s solved.
Wait! Is it really solved?
Fine, I do look like a mess, but… is that really why? Oh c’mon. There couldn’t be more. Shut up! My inside’s way way messier than my outside. I started my day wishing – just wishing! I let out a so-wonderful-and-hopeful wish, but what did I do after to make that wish come true?
A wish itself is wistful thinking. You wish for something coz you never had it. I wished for a good day coz, somehow, I knew there’s no way for me to achieve that kind of day coz I always, always suck at everything! I wished for a better day, but didn’t even lengthen my patience. I wished for a better day, but didn’t even pay attention to the beauty that the day was offering me. I wished for a better day, but still chose to succumb into negative and selfish thoughts and ideals.
What a bummer!
Now the day’s over and it turned out to be worse than yesterday, and is there anything left for me to do to change this? – NO! Tomorrow today will just be another yesterday that sucked!
But wait! I can do something… I think.
I know this is not going to be easy at all, but what if I try to be someone who will work to maketomorrow better than yesterday? What if I succumb to beauty and positivity rather than to flaws and negativity? Do you think it would work, or make a difference at the very least?
Well, I think it’s worth the try!
Tomorrow I will wake up determined to make the day better than it has ever been! And. Actually. WORK ON IT.
Wish me luck!
