Sometimes you just have those days where you don't even know you are in a bad mood until you realize that everyone is kind just saying things that irk you. That is me, that is today.
I woke up feeling fine, but then I was talking to some people and...oof I noticed I was getting angry and I just needed to stop.
So I told my mom what was going on, what these people were doing to irk me, and of course she listened.
Then I come back out to the kitchen to get some water and my mom says to me, "I got you a surprise"
I look down on the kitchen table, and it was a pigeon feather. (if you don't know, I really love pigeons, I get very excited when I see them)
I thought that was the sweetest thing and it is such a pretty-looking feather too! Look at that!
It is such a small little gesture, but it means so much. And the fact that she just so happened to find a feather on the ground that was just perfect.
It is the little things that make life feel a lot better and being angry is just a waste of time.

I try not to project my anger all that much, but sometimes, oof I cannot hide and just need to go back to bed or distract myself because I do not become a disturbance haha

It's okay to have a bad every now and then, it makes the small gestures meaningful.
