The last few days have been rainy and cold. The weather can really have an effect on your mood. It is important to know this and keep your wits about you. When there are things you cannot control you have to just keep going. I have learned this in many areas of life. Weather being one of them. I have changed plans because of the weather. But I finally realized there are some things you just have to deal with. Weather is one of many.
Unkind people is another example of things in life beyond our control. We can only be the best person we can be and hope the next person will do the same. However do not walk around in life with blinders on. Realize you will run into those you disagree with, who are unkind, cruel, whatever the situation brings.
Enjoy your day everyone.

We had the first rain of the season here today and I am enjoying it!
There are some things in the past that I would love to change, such as old relationships. It would be nice to go back in redo things the other way, which may have prolonged them.
Bad weather affects my mood, but I’m trying to think positively
You’re so right about accepting that we cannot control certain things. Otherwise we just torment ourselves needlessly.
Been there done that many times, hopefully not any more.
It’s a hard lesson to learn/teach yourself, and it’s hard not to slip back into old habits too, I find.
It’s been raining here for two day straight. I am so happy!! We needed it so much.
The answers to your questions were yes and yes. To know what I do now and go back Heck yeah!
I am sure you needed the rain Kim. A little late for the fires. I agree with your answers.
It has been cold and rainy in my neck of the woods too. I guess we need the rain though – we have had such a long, dry summer.
I clearly understand your message Carol. This is a fact of life.
Nevertheless, I do very much love the rain in South Africa, particularly on the East Coast because it rains during summer. Strange enough in places like Cape Town which is situated on the West of South Africa, the rain mostly falls during winter.
Rain can be a metaphor for 2 opposite directives which in my opinion is equally effective.
As much as I love the summer rain, winter rain has its benefits.
Good to see you Bradley. I love the rain. Thank you for explaining the rain and weather in your part of the world.
I love rainy weather.
Same here, I love rain as well.
No rains here… but cloudy.. gloomy these past few days.
I don’t like to change anything in my life I am fine. I am ripened by my mistakes.
Sorry about the gloomy days. We all make mistakes.
I wish I could change things in my life but …
It has been rainy in my area too … :/
Yes I guess we all would like to change things but we cannot.
What would not change much – I’m happy with my life Carol
Rainy weather has a bad influence on my mood
Sorry about the rain and your mood. Try to think happy thoughts. 🙂
Thanks for the encouragement dear Carol
I’ll try to think of nice things
You are always welcome my friend.
Thanks for the kind and encouraging words dear Carol
Everyday we consider changing tomorrow we move tomorrow I like that question!
Yes if only we could change it.
