Dear Reader,
Those days when you feel like everything is impossible. Despite what the title of the post suggests, I do like rainy days. It's the feeling of the song that expresses the feeling of today (this entire week, really). Have you ever you had those days when you feel like you are just not good enough to do anything right? That's the idea behind the song "Rainy days and Mondays." It expresses how some days are really tough and all a person wants to do is curl up and give up on their endeavors.
The other part of feeling down like I am this week is worse. Sometimes with negative feelings come other negative thoughts. When I feel like this, I unconsciously find the loopholes and negative sides to every situation, even if the situation has nothing wrong with it. I'll show you what I mean with this video below. It has been posted all over Facebook for the past couple of days and it is a very uplifting story. However, every time I have watched it this week, I have thought, "So what? This is normal, there is nothing extraordinary or special about this kid or his story." That's when I realized I was in a bad mood.
This young man is a good example of how we should live. Even now I am still in a down mood and find it hard to describe how wonderful it is that this boy made life for his loved ones and friends. However, I will encourage you to watch the video and experience the good feelings that were intended by those who created it.

Life is good. I shouldn't complain. I apologize for being a punk this week.
