Hi mimpz! I'm sorry that you were feeling down at the moment. I hope that you will feel a lot better soon. When I'm feeling down I sometimes try to think of the good thoughts that would make me smile, when I'm sad I just get along with my feelings and let it pass, because I know I am only human with a mix emotions. As long as I am positive for the future and happy with my life, that is all matter to me.
I get this poem in the net that I give to a friend when she's feeling down and I want it to share with you also.
When things go wrong as they sometimes will;
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill;
When the funds are low, and the debts are high;
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh;
When care is pressing you down a bit
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Success is failure turned inside out;
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt;
And you can never tell how close you are;
It may be near when it seems afar.
So, stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -
It's when things go wrong that you mustn't quit

[i]When the dog bites
When the bee stings
When I'm feeling sad
I simply remember my favorite things
And then I don't feel so bad [/i]
Or as Bob Marley shared what the three little birds's message to him was:
Don't worry about a thing, every little thing's gonna be alright.
Mimpi, I hope that frown is slowing turning the other way. That you have smiled with the rising sun. You are extraordinary and you know that.

Good, good, good, good, good. Smile smile smile smile smile.
I know you admire Mother Teresa and you probably already have read this quote by her:
Peace begins with a smile.
I'm glad you're all smiles now, Mou. Keep it up.

Heya mimpi. Harness your mind my friend and don't let this get the better of you for goodness sake! I know this is all wonderful in theory but you know I'm right.
FORCE yourself to step outside of this mindset mimpi, it's the only way. As for quotes, I will share one that I have shared on mylot numerous times before as I feel it is relevant: Every dark cloud has a sun burning brightly behind it!
Seek the SUN mimpi..... It's there alright!

Hello mimpi. I am so sorry that you were extremely down that day, but I am sure that you are right now in high spirit all these days. You know, it is very normal for us humans to sometimes feel letdown, which is part of our emotions. I wish you to always Live Well, Laugh Often and Love Much in your life. Smile, please, dear mimpi.

"I've had a perfectly wonderful evening. But this wasn't it."-- Groucho Marx
"He has no enemies, but is intensely disliked by his friends." -- Oscar Wilde
"I am enclosing two tickets to the first night of my new play; bring a friend... If you have one." -- George Bernard Shaw to Winston Churchill...followed by: Churchill's response: "Cannot possibly attend first night, will attend second, if there is one." -- Winston Churchill

One of my favorite quotes is this:
Commit random acts of kindness and senseless beauty!
Some say "Perform" instead of "Commit" but I like it better this way as using "Commit" reminds me also of the saying, "No good deed goes unpunished!" Now that one is not one of my favorite sayings at all, but it sure rings true at times.
Cheer up my friend. You are special :-)

10 Ways to Have a Better Day Today1.Wake up 30 Minutes Early.
Get up 30 minutes before the alarm goes off and take the first half hour for yourself. Once you get busy and into the day there never seems to be the time for yourself. Take this time to plan getting the most from the day.
2.Read, Listen, or Watch Something Uplifting.
Make this a daily habit. Get out of starting the day with no mental food. A great day does not begin with the news or the paper, it begins with ideas or energy that will propel you through the day. What you first hear will stay with you throughout the day.
3.Eat a Good Breakfast to Start You Off Right.
Get something good into your body to wake it up and get it going. Think about the energy you will need to perform. Everyday we run a marathon. What would you need to eat and drink to win it.
4.Choose Your Winning Attitude.
There is enough to go wrong without sabotaging yourself. Your attitude is a choice you make. Don't let it come between you and your success. Be careful to keep it positive all day long.
5.Be Aware of What They are Telling You.
The people around us have a profound effect on how we get through life. Our closest friends and family are our greatest environmental influences. Make sure you have the best advisors you can find.
6.Make the Most of What You Do.
When you get to your work, make it the best place to be. Most people go to work and never think about work while they are there. Focus on your contribution. What would it be like if you were not around. Strive to give a 100% each and every day.
7.Always Remember that People are Listening.
Make a point of talking well of others. Wish others the best in life. What goes around does come around. Don't talk negative about anyone. Try to understand their circumstances Practice being a support system to your friends and family. They need you.
8.Be Honest and Fair to Others.
It does make a difference. What you give to others is usually what you get from others. Practice integrity that people can see and feel. Be aware of what you say. Learn to walk your talk at all times. The more people trust you, the more of their time they will trust with you.
9.Pace Your Energy to Last All Day.
Be careful of bursts of energy. Pace your energy throughout the day. If you get to crazy early in the day, you will reach a point of exhaustion before the day is over. By planning your entire day before you begin, you will have what you need. You've heard the old saying "look alive."
10.Get in Bed Early and Study for the Future.
I have a friend who keeps a journal at his bedside. Every night he writes what he learned new on that day. The only way to keep one step above the masses is to learn new ways to do things. Develop the habit of reading a work or personal development book before you go to sleep. Reading for 30 minutes a day is like a year of college. You can't succeed if you don't read. Remember throughout your day that life is what we make it, day by day. Practice having the best day ever. It adds up to a great life.

Hi mimpi!
Just got from work. Something bad happened and it really made my day suck! But as I turned my computer on and join several discussions, it made me think that the problem is not that bad after all. I would give you tons of inspirational quotes to suit your needs. But i'm sure you have treasured more than i know.
As always,please try to inspire others, reflect your positivism. for only then can you make yourself smile.
Cheer up!

Hi mimpi! Don't know if I have any quotes to get you going
but, I know how you feel. I have those days alot myself and
they do pass. Oh yeah, there's one "This to shall pass"!
I know that wasn't all that inspiring, but it is true! They
all do come and go! If today is just "one of those days" then
maybe tomorrow will be better! I hate those quote kind of
days, but you did ask for them so I will give you the one
that my girlfriend always says that drives me nuts! She never
saw "Gone With The Wind" but always says "Tomorrow's another
day!" And I always say to her "Why thank you Scarlett!

Get up, get out of bed, do something whacky, spank the panda, sing something, read some jokes, watch your favourite comedy movie. You have to get out of that frame of mind.
If that does not help then try this

I have a very poor memory as far as quotes are concerned but I would like to tell you to just while away the day. Most of us are so busy everyday with so much to do, that on days when we feel down, we somehow feel guilty of not doing anything. Let this feeling pass, do something which you might enjoy in a sedentary way. Mylotting is good, you may pick up a book or listen to some soothing music. Sometimes its good to be down, tomorrow you would be up with renewed vigour.
