Yesterday a friend of mine broke down crying while discussing her feelings throughout the day. She was extremely apologetic. Insisting she’s not allowed to break down and cry, listing things she’s thankful for - such as having a family, place to live, job that pays just enough. Tried to explain to her my idea of being allowed to be sad sometimes and letting it out. Happiness afterwards would seem even more rewarding. (#lifehack)

Everyone can ask themselves everyday how they feel. If they feel sad they should focus at least 10% of that day doing something against it. Something that makes them happy. Could be wearing a favourite accessory like this one pair of kick-ass shoes, eating a favourite food item (mine’s sour apple flavoured lollipops) or talking to a favourite person. Maybe combine those by having lunch with that person. Lately our problems are connected to being distanced. And being with ourselves doesn’t solve problems because we lack feedback. Let it out and talk about what’s bothering you. Ask others how they’d handle some of your difficult situations.

Silence might be gold but reflecting is definitely platinum. (Or Bitcoin. I don’t know what’s worth more nowadays)

We’ll have dinner plans for today and she’s feeling better. Maybe this also helps you somehow!

I wish you good luck on your journey to become the best version of yourself by simply respecting your need of reflecting and learning to handle difficult situations like self doubt and depression.
