Motivational Monday: Say No To Sadness!
Look at this pretty bouquet of flowers. A touching gesture of sympathy and love from a dear friend up north. (Thanks J.)
“There are some people who live in a dream world, and there are some who face reality; and then there are those who turn one into the other.”
~Douglass Everett
Anyone else a little more than bummed out with the real world? How are you dealing with it?
I find great conversations, tons of books, prayers, inspirational quotes, laughter, pretty things found only in nature (look above) and repeating over and over again, “You will get through this! You will be awesome! You are a rock star! You can fight this!” in the mirror and then going out and trying to accomplish some things (finally hemming my pants, finally cleaning my closet, finally writing that script that’s been stuck in my head) pretty helpful.

I have this problem. I have a need to share with the world my passions and interests and hope that they will also enjoy it. Hence, this blog is born- to showcase some of the things I'm most fascinated with. Most of the posts relate to the media as it relates to me. (Blame the early twenties neurosis of thinking the world revolves around you). (More..)

By going to the spa, reading books, spending time with loved ones and pets. But most of all taking the time to check with myself and see whether or not I can do anything about the things I’m sad about. If not, then I re-focus my thoughts to concentrate on what I can affect, to stay productive and proactive. =)
Dear Media Maid,
Every day I (we) wake up to a new day. There are times when sadness darkens/dims even the brightest days. It is times like these where the weak quit and the strong persevere. Thank you for mentioning how you deal/manage/cope with less than ideal days/situations. It happens to all of us at less than opportune times in our lives. It is often said that “misery loves company,” I stay hopeful that instead of breaking each other down, we would encourage and build each other up. Thanks for posting this on your “Motivational Monday” topic and I sincerely hope that you keep up your fantastical work. I’m both a friend and a fan! Let me know whenever you need a champion for your cause, I’d be your advocate!
