Today I had the blues. I wasn't thinking negative thoughts or complaining about things, but I still just wasn't all smiles. I was in a funk and wasn't sure how to get out of it. I played the glad game and looked at the bright side of things, but still felt down in the dumps.
So I decided to get involved in something and make fun plans to look forward to. I found the website for the Houston Howdy Club, which is an organization for former Texas A&M Students. They have socials, volunteer, fundraise for scholarships, and play intramural sports! I started to feel better after putting some events on the calendar where I can meet new people and have a good time. Then I decided to go to the gym and by the time I got home my blues were completely gone!
I now know two things that bring me Joy. The first is being social and planning for fun events. The second is exercise. Hopefully I can keep this in mind the next time I have the blues!
