Negative Holidays

Holidays are a time of reflection and relaxation, when you can get around to those projects that you never have time to do in the term. But not all of your holidays will be incredible, lets face it.

I recently went camping at the beach for a week with my family and it was not what I had expected...but not in a positive way. The weather was awful, the internet was so slow I was unable to do my work and the second day we were there I got an ear infection, fun! And I have to admit I was in a grumpy mood for the following three days. This meant that the whole atmosphere when we went driving, to the markets or even just sat together, the other five people around me were also upset. 

Finally after shocking awakening to my 5th day, when my brother poured water onto my sleeping face, I made the conscious decision to change my perspective and attitude. It's easier said than done, sometimes you just need a bit of alone time. This could mean just going for a walk, taking a shower or drinking a cup of tea to clear your head. 

Life will always have its challenges be that work, changing plans or people. You may not be able to choose your challenges but you are the only person who can have an effect on the direction you go afterwards. 

Enjoy the moments you get in life, if they are good or bad.
