For some reason I am one of those people whose motivation level and mood are greatly affected by the weather. I am a sunshine addict, cloud watcher and lover of bright blue sky.
It may be a result of the majority of my adult life being spent in Colorado where we get over 300 days of sunshine a year (gasp). I know, it is wonderful especially for people like me who can’t seem to pull it together as well on the yucky weather days.
The past week I have been in a funk of sorts, not really having much direction, being overly cranky and sensitive and kind of bummed out. I am not sure what what the cause is but if I were a betting gal I would put my money on just it just being an accumulation of the past 5 years of my kind of crappy hand in life. When I woke up this morning the sun was shining and the sky was bright blue.
I thought to myself “well at least it is a beautiful day”. Sometimes that is all it takes – a beautiful day to help make my outlook a bit better and my mindset more positive.
I know I have a million blessings to be thankful for and that this little funk shall pass but I thought I would share honestly about where this Mental Music Monday song came from. (I can’t lie, I love U2 also). I turned on my computer and let iTunes shuffle for a bit while doing my chores and once again was reminded of how powerful music can be!
Enjoy!
