Welcome back Clovers!
I know a majority of people don’t look forward to Mondays but it’s here now and you have to get on with it.
Our environment and people around us contribute to our feelings, emotions and perception of things. Stay around a lot of optimists and after a while that, you may catch a little bit of optimism. Same goes for pessimism and even habits.
But that’s all external factors. There are also internal factors that determine if you will catch it.
Think of the internal factors as your immune system fighting for you so you don’t catch a flu. The external factors are those things you to avoid it such as keeping distance from someone who already caught it, cleaning your hands, covering your nose and mouth, washing your hands or using sanitizer, stuff like that.
I’m pretty sure you wouldn’t want to get the flu. So you need to take care of yourself if you don’t want that.
There will be good times, bad times, happy times, terrible ones too. Life comprises of a mixture and you’re not always certain which is coming your way. There may be pain and grief but you’ll get through. All you’ve got to do is burn the pain.

Yep, that’s right. Burn it up. You don’t need any of that to get in your way. Create your happy place inside. Fill it with memories of good times.
Don’t overthink it. Find your source of joy, not just from material things. Find that thing you love, or things and even good times and memories too. Ensure you engrave it in your heart, something that will always bring you inner peace. It will be the light keeping the darkness away and yes, it will also burn out the pain
“Find a place inside where there’s joy, and the joy will burn out the pain.”
Joseph Campbell
