Waking up and saying

Today I already know I have to say ‘sorry.’ Do you ever wake up in a mood where clearly you didn’t get enough sleep the night before and all you want to do is argue?

It happens to me sometimes. When I lived alone of course I never noticed this as I had no one to argue with. Married though seriously my husband gets me a cup of orange juice and brings it to me and I argue that today isn’t going to be hot outside. It’s clearly only hot on the inside.

I become my way or the highway. I’m not pretty this way. Sometimes I wish I could pull the covers over my head and hit restart to the day.

Now that I’ve had my morning smoothie and had a few moments of quiet, I realize how mean spirited I was and for no reason.

Tonight I’ll apologize. It’s the best I can do.

Does this ever happen to you? Not everyday is sun and roses. All I can do when this happens is see my mistakes and try to make up for them. “I’m sorry” are words that can come out of my mouth. Once I do that, then I’ll feel better. There was no need to be a bear. One day I’ll learn to always be a swan and not this grizzly beast that once in a while shows up.

Perhaps this part of my soul is how I get in touch with writing the evil characters. I admit I have a dark side. I think we all do, but it’s better to feed the good side of the soul. There is no getting around once in a while saying ‘Sorry.’  It is good for the soul.
