Re-Energized, And Loving It

Alright! I seem to have found my long lost stores of energy and motivation. Where I currently live at, I do not have many friends. They all have their own lives and seem quite busy for the most part. So here I sat with little to no social life, and wondering what I was going to do with my life.

So, thinking this may have been one of the reasons for my latest blue mood, I decided to go see my parents and some great friends and see if it would help. After a week spent away from home, I come back, somewhat relaxed, energized and motivated. I seem to have found myself again! I am starting to tackle cleaning (something I've been wanting to do, but never had the drive for) and found something new to learn. I'll be elaborating on that one later.

The friend I went to see also ruined my ability to stay in our dark apartment all day long. My mother always said people need sunlight, and staying at my friend's place, who could never seem to get enough of that light, seem to have made me used to it. Now I find myself looking around our dark apartment and finding it too gloomy. So, I went hunting for our white curtains, and put them in place to be able to stay by my computer and enjoy the outside light. I wonder how my darkness-loving boyfriend will react to that... Guess we shall see!

Take care, people! And get some sun!

Resuming The Quest For Happiness

After many months of hiatus, I return to the blog with a new desire to write. Apologies for the long delay!

It has been pointed out to me that I have been getting depressed again lately. But this time, I have no job dragging me down. However, it seems that my job search has me a bit bothered (fear of getting another stressful job, perhaps?), and I have been getting bored at home. I have been doing some thinking as to what may have been gnawing at me lately, and have been unable to figure out what. Today, something hit me: Why search for the negative when I can spend my time and energy creating more positive?

Hmm, I seem to recall coming to this conclusion several months back when my doctor stopped me from working. Nevertheless, my reoccurring epiphany has prompted me to start looking for the little things in life that bring happiness. Hopefully I will stumble upon some big things along the way! Life has a tendency to make you forget about being happy. Thus I begin my quest to introduce happiness into every fiber of my being! I hope you'll tag along for the ride!
