She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes.

Well, Ladies and Gents. I feel like I'm getting my funky flare back! I realized a while a go I was in some sort of haze. It was almost like every day that I woke up I was in some kind of foggy state of mind. This is not abnormal for me. I've suffered from "the blues" ever since I was a little girl. Yes, that scary word... depression. It comes and goes.

This was one of my longer bouts. But the fog has lifted. I've decided to make more of a conscious effort to keep myself engaged, focus, and always in the moment. Not drifting off to those negative, pessimistic, anxious thoughts that can send me into a downward spiral. Especially before bed.

Anyone else get like this?

When it's run it's course, it's seriously like "waking up". You have more energy, you're beaming with joy, everything sounds wonderful.

This isn't to say I wasn't happy before. I was. I am most of the time. I'm known to be "upbeat" and "bubbly". But something felt "off". I have my Father's genetics to thank for that one.

Anyway. I'm awake. I'm happy. I'm grateful. I'm all your's, World. Let's go. :)

Happy Hearts,

Alex
