When they get whiney and complainy I just remind myself that I am in a better position. I can notice the beauty of the day and not focus on the negative. It helps to feel sorry for mine, and thankful that I'm not seeing life through that lens.

Songs are like dynamite. I've created a playlist that on certain days I ONLY listen to it. I titled it 'hope'. They are all songs that have no triggers, no memories, just fun songs. 'i can see clearly now the rain is gone', 'boom-shakka-laka', etc. Silly songs, old songs, just whatever I know perks me up and makes my bottom wiggle. ; ) They are really less about hope and more about keeping my head up. Several songs about my value in Christ. Those are the best for me.

I'm in the US. I don't know if we have walking holidays. Still haven't looked that up. Sounds cool. I hope you have the most amazing vacation. You need one, too!!
