Lots of people get into a funk from time-to-time. They get demoralized. They occasionally get depressed. Well, don't fret. Life is full of ups and downs, just like the thermometer. So, don't stress, just roll with it.
Yesterday is gone. Like the painting on the right, the sun goes down and the moon lights up the night sky. It's time to inhale slowly and just let it all out and think about what tomorrow may bring. I painted this image from a reference photograph I took on the deck of a three-masted schooner in the bay at St. Augustine. The ship was "Freedom" and to me, it symbolizes a bright future is coming and things of the past are behind us. The future awaits us.People tend to be cynical. They tend to expect the worst. If that is you, it's time to reprogram yourself. Rather than fear the unknown, embrace tomorrow for the coming of a new day. Embrace MONDAY as the start of a new week-- new opportunities are on the horizon. So, chin up there, kiddo.
Rather than seeing all of those visions of doom and gloom you've had running through your head, imagine yourself being happy, laughing, having a full wallet, a nice car, a beautiful home, and the love of your life. Tell yourself, you are good at what you do and if you work in a place where people don't recognize that, that's okay. You can look for a place that will give you the opportunities you want and the chance to reach for the stars.
It's Monday. The future is yours if you will only reach out and grab it!
