Motivation
My boyfriend broke up with me yesterday. As I was getting ready to go over to his house to have "the talk" I actually took a shower, did my hair, put on makeup, picked out some nice clothes...guess what, even though the event was horrible; I actually felt better about myself than I had in a long time. I, like most of you, haven't really styled my hair or put on makeup in MONTHS. Doing it made me realize that sometimes sitting around in the pjs or an oversized sweatshirt and pants has possibly added to my fatigue and depression. I have made myself the promise that I am going to wake up, walk, jump into the shower, dry my hair, and put on makeup - then if I want to collapse and take a nap - fine. I am hoping that maybe, just maybe, I won't. Maybe, just maybe, I will want to go out, meet some friends. Maybe my energy will last an extra half hour because I feel good about myself. It is worth a try.
