I am sure that there is no one who is exempt from having a bad day. When I find myself in the midst of one, it is difficult for me to write. I feel like dirty laundry has been thrown on top of the words that I want to say. My mind tells me that I cannot write unless it is something profound. This, of course, is just another ploy that my perfectionist persona uses to keep me from writing at all. There is nothing wrong with having a bad day - it cannot be sunshine and lollipops all the time. If this were the case, we would cease to appreciate the sunshine and lollipops, probably getting quite sick of them. We need the gray skies and sugarless treats to help us appreciate their opposites. We need balance in our lives and that includes being aware of the fact that the bad days are temporary, just like the rain, which washes everything clean. Our bad moods can cause us to step back and take a look at that pile of dirty laundry that is covering up the sunshine. We may sit looking at it for awhile, but once we have given it a little attention, we can feel good about throwing it in the washer, giving it it's own rain shower and washing ourselves clean.
