Be Grateful When Feeling Good

The happiest person on earth isn't always happy. In fact, the happiest people all have their fair share of low moods, problems, disappointments, and heartache. Often the differenc ebetween a person who is happy and someone who is unhappy is how often they get low, or even how low they drop, but instead it's what they do with their low moods. How do they relate to their changing feelings?

When I observe peaceful, relaxed people, I find that that when they are feeling good, they are so caring and very grateful. They understand that both positive and negative feels come and go, and that there will come a time when they won't be feeling so good. To happy people, this is okay; it's the way of things.

To a person always in a low mood, they don't know the difference because they are so comfortable with their low moods. They don't care because in due time maybe they'll be happy and maybe not. (Most generally not). And to be honest, they are drainy to me....my energy gets sapped from their "pretty far down mood."

I'd rather have grateful feelings and feel good, wouldn't you?
