Happy Fall!

Happy Fall! Some believe that we do not have a choice about how we feel, that we cannot choose to be happy when times are bad. I know we can. 

I know there are absolutely times that it’s completely appropriate to feel bad. Bad can be sad, angry, frustrated, depressed, and any other myriad of lower-tone emotions. 


To be living and stuck in any one emotion is not healthy, be it positive and happy or down and sad. A healthy individual moves between many emotions in the emotional tone scale as is appropriate for the specific situation. To be happy all the time is as unhealthy as it is to be in grief for an extended period of time. I’m not putting timelines on either of these hypothetical situations, but I am saying to stay in any one emotion is not healthy.
