Expecting a person to be “nice” at all times is not only unreasonable but
downright RI-DIC-U-LOUS.
Are you perfect? Didn’t think so. Neither am I, so don’t be surprised when I inevitably deviate from a positive or “acceptable” feeling/behavior.
Try this out:
Rainbow colors in order are red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo & violet, which is abbreviated as ROY G BIV. So here we go as we barely scratch the surface of our ups & downs & everything in between:
R = regret
O = overjoyed
Y = youthful
G = grumpy
B = boredom
I = interest
V = very sad
Lesson? No one is immune to grumpy days – I tend to lean that way when I feel lousy, like when I’m fighting the cold that currently consumes me; happy occasions, like when I enjoyed visiting cool close friends last week in Indiana; times of regret, when I fail to act in my best behavior; or the plethora of human emotions not mentioned!
So don’t fret when you slip up, there’s always next time, friend.
