The great Hannah Montana once said that “Everyone has those days”. We are all human and we all have those days. Here is a list of 10 things to smile about when it’s one of those days!
- Sunsets
-
The orange and coral explosion in the sky. It reminds us that endings are great. Even on a 29-degree day in the middle of February, they’re a reason to smile. Sunsets remind us that even the worst days ever are only 24 hours long.
- Sunrises
-
Sunrises are just as great as sunsets. Sunrises are the start of new beginnings. Each ending is the start of a brand new beginning. This could be the beginning that you are waiting for.
- Listening to Throwback Music
-
Whether it’s any Hannah Montana song or “Tonight, Tonight” by Hot Chelle Rae, any feel-good throwback song will brighten your mood a little. Throwback songs remind us about the good old days. For the duration of the song, the music brings you back to happier times and reminds us that there are gonna be even happier times in life that we haven’t lived yet.
- Watching “The Office” Bloopers
-
The Office is one of the most popular shows of this generation. Although the show itself is hilarious, the bloopers are even funny. There is something so great about seeing these actors have genuine fun and being able to laugh at ourselves.
- Planning a Trip
-
There is something so satisfying about planning a vacation. Like getting from point A to point B to point C etc. It is especially rewarding if you are so excited about something and after a long time waiting, the trip is almost here. You can practically feel the butterflies in your stomach, flying all-around your heart and in between your ribs. What you have been waiting for is finally here!
- Going to the Beach for the First Time in the Summer
-
There is something so amazing about feeling the hot sand and the cold ocean for the first time in the summer. Swimming the ocean makes the hot summer days more refreshing.
- Rollercoasters
-
There is something so addictive about the adrenaline rush on a rollercoaster. That feeling when your stomach drops on the big hill? Priceless! They’re unexplainably so addicting and there is something so exciting about them that makes people want to come back to them.
- Seeing a Dog
-
Dogs are one of the best parts of life. Especially when you are walking somewhere and another person is on a walk with their dog and the dog is tugging at the leash because they want to meet you. Or when you come home from school and you see your dog for the first time in a while. Nothing beats seeing your dog for the first time in a while because they are so excited to see you!
- When You Focus on the Good, the Good Gets Better
-
When you focus on the good in your life, the good in your life gets better. Even the things that aren’t considered good, will also get better as well. When you focus on the good, you’re appreciating the good, and when you are appreciating the good, it makes life around you better and it makes you have a happier state of mind.
- The Pain You Are Feeling Right Now is Only a Fraction of the Joy You Will Feel Soon
-
This is a quote that I’ve been living by since I was in middle school. This quote means that even if right now is difficult, something undeniably amazing is in store for you. The only thing you have to do is not give up. Sometimes you have to have bad days, to love the good days even more. There will always be a sunny day after the darkest storm.
These are some things to smile about if you are feeling down. Have a great day!!
