Sunflower motivated me

Life can feel so difficult for no reason at all. Each day can come with its own struggles. Sometimes you feel this way and you can't put your mind on the main reason. Maybe it's all the challenges you're going through that alhas culminated into that one day feeling. That's what I experienced early in the morning right after I woke up from bed. And I didn't even get a bad dream so I wonder why I felt that way.

I don't expect every day to be as challenging. Every day brings its own challenges so finding the small things that add some joy to my day should be my goal.

So I thought about how sunflowers grow. Even when they are planted in bad spots. Sunflowers can withstand the heat, wind and the clouds and still find a way to grow little by little every day.

The sunflower doesn't start her day when the sun gives her the signal to go. It goes and whether or not the sun is shining makes no difference. That's what I missed and it has helped change my mood thinking about it. Looking for the sun is not an act of desperation. When you have no motivation, instead of closing the room door and trying to shut everyone out your life for that day, go outside and take a walk.

Life won't randomly come with the sun. There will come a time where you will need to look for the rays yourself. You need to make an effort.

We will need to continue to make changes as we move forward. It’s more than pretending nothing is wrong. When light is available again after the rain, even sunflowers remember where the light is.

From this, we can see there can be a stronger motivation to chase the light instead of rain. So when light is ahead, go to it like a sunflower does.
