Sometimes I want to print out a picture of the universe, tape it to a dart board and throw away. And then sometimes the universe sends me something like this and the game has changed.

What if funky, confusing, gray, lonely days were just part of a “system” that, in turn, created bright, rich, happy, friendly days?
What if they were just meant to give deeper elements of your creativity a rest?
What if they were deliberately crafted holidays, of a sort, devised by your inner psyche to relieve you from the pressure of artificial expectations?
Would you still bemoan them, wonder what’s wrong with you, or fear that they’ll never end? Or, would they kind of tickle you pink?

I certainly don’t mind a lonely rough day or two – but it’s when they turn into weeks that I start to see a problem…

One or two gloomy days can be refreshing but when LA resembles Seattle for a week it no longer resembles a holiday. Unless you’re talking about “Working Naked Day” (which is coming up), then it seems like a holiday.

Yes. This is exactly it. I notice this especially with my job – it has it’s extremely high ups, but when it’s bad it gets really, really bad.
I had one of those down days yesterday, I felt so depressed and down but when I woke up today the sun was shining and I could actually feel it shining on me. It really was a new day.
