If this were a picture with a positive quote, you would’ve thought I had a great day.
You would’ve thought my life is full of good luck and positivity, and things are always easy for me because of the ways I look at things.
Truth is, it’s not.
In fact, I had a rough day with unexpected bumps & setbacks the whole day. As much as I knew these experience will eventually help me grow, I can’t help but feel a little down & demotivated.😞
But you wouldn’t guessed that if I didn’t say it out…would you?🧐
Just this morning, my patient told me that she’s on a Social Media Detox.
With more time spent on social media, it’s easy to put ourselves in a toxic pressure where we think we have to “live the best life” all the time.
As a person who tend to avoid sharing negative things in life, I can relate to that. I always have the mindset that I should NOT talk about the bad stuff, the negative stuff online, because I don’t want to make social media a depressing space.
But life is not perfect.
In fact, we have and we NEED the “lows”…so we can appreciate the “highs”. It is important for us to acknowledge our negative emotions and accept it as a part of growth. After all, it is never a good thing to hide your devil, but to learn how to co-exist with it.
We are humans. And our emotions, grey or bright, are what make our lives colourful. Admitting that you’re going through something bad in life once in a while doesn’t make you weak, it makes you more human.
I guess this was a long post for saying “I had a bad day”.😂 But hey, it’s me, and I like sharing stuff in my brain. So if you had a bad day, know that it too shall pass, and if Kayla can do it, you can do it better. 😆💪
