On cloudy and rainy days like today, It’s easy to feel lazy, frustrated, sad or gloomy about things that we have experienced or things that may come in the future. Outside influences can sometimes affect our moods and how we react to each day. It’s on days like these, that we have to remind ourselves that we are in charge of how much we let the outside situations, people or weather affect us internally. Ultimately, WE CHOOSE HOW WE FEEL DAILY!!! how we react to the outside situations and how much sunlight we decide to keep in our hearts. 
Nothing good comes from being negative or from seeking out the storms of our lives! we can’t build anything good from negativity or negative things…so, why focus on them? instead, we should choose to bring in ALL that is good and all that is light into our lives and start seeing how much sunlight we really do have. <3 We can do this by; turning off distractions and focus our attention on listening to our loved ones, by giving service, being grateful, focusing on our blessings, praying and seeking for answers to our prayers in the holy writings that we’re so blessed to have! 🙂 We often forget that God has given us His words to guide us…let’s not take them for granted, but instead use them for our benefit and strength!
Here are a couple that can help us,
I know that God loves us! Thats another reason why He has given us words like these to help us and strengthen us. He wants us to be positive and to look for the sunshine in our lives as hard as the storms and difficulties that we go through may be….we can always find sunshine and actually grow from those situations! letting go of the bad and keeping the good that we learn 
We can be faithful and continue to grow stronger in our faith having a spirit of happiness and of optimism about our lives…To then be able to share our light with others and help them as well! 
We are not alone, God will help us and all things in our lives will work out for our benefit, when our focus is on the GOOD!!!
Our Spiritual goal for the week is: to enjoy more fully the sunlight! When we feel that our minds are seeking out storms…We’re gonna stop and think about how we can be positive or turn the situation into something good for us, that will benefit us and help us! we are in charge of making the negativity disappear! 🙂 Let’s do it!
Our Physical goal for the week is: to do something physical that brings us joy! wether that is, walking on the beach, dancing, jogging, swimming, playing volleyball etc..basically anything that will help us feel physically good and that feels good for us! <3
Hope you can make it to class tonight! I know that the hardest thing is showing up! but once you choose to do this for yourself, your mind, body and spirit will thank you for being there! Its so therapeutic! and for those os us who go, we know that its an awesome workout…but we also know that its a lot more than that! Let’s do it because we LOVE ourselves and because we need it!
Love you all!!!
xoxo
