I most certainly have my bad days, and you're right, it's all a part of who we are, and we should grow with all of it, not just half. I myself feel like I have been more in tune with those who are having those bad days, the down times, I know that everyone has these days and so I try not to focus on if I'm having a better day, but rather acknowledge my better day and then I don't focus on that specifically, like especially where I work, you need to stay cool and level headed and I try to be there for others when I can.
@twiigss I think it's very healthy to acknowledge all of our feelings. Doesn't mean we're downward spiraling or a jerk.
Most feelings are temporary. Our moods shift like everything in our world does.
But people talk about unfavorable times like it's so negative when truth is feeling it gets you through it. Honesty keeps you clean.
Being around people who hide emotions, call your bad day terrible and/or avoid the perceived negative feelings makes me wonder why they'd want to isolate others or themselves for what is completely natural.
What if we observed the "negative" and gave it space so it could pass through without suppressing? I think those feelings can absolutely be beneficial.
I don't see how pretending everything is great gets us anywhere. And when I do see people acting that way, I see destructive tendencies.
