Emotional Environment

So, I am beginning to think that everything around us carry with it a temperature (like hot and cold) and also a kind of emotional temperature. Sometimes people call it a vibe, but i think that it acts more like a temperature in that it can be effected by a wide veriety of things and in turn can have an effect on the environment around it.

I think the reason that I'm thinking about this right now is because it is raining and dark outside and I'm feeling sick so I'm noticing a bit of a gloomy mood beginning to creep in. I guess I'd rather analyze it instead of letting it take over. :)

I have noticed, as most people probably have, how a sunshiney day can make you feel wonderful, and how a cheerful friend can brighten a yucky day.

This is pretty obvious stuff. But I choose to remind myself about this now because I live with a lot of people, mostly little ones whose emotions are really at the mercy of what ever is happening to them at the time. I have to remember that how I feel, my own emotional temperature, has an impact on my environment and the people around me.

So, if I have a choice, I'd like to bring them up instead of down. I don't want to bring my kids home from school to a place that's gloomy. I'm not sure i have enough energy for anything as exciting as cheerful, but I can definately aim for peaceful. 

Peacefulness it is then. Take a deap breath, smile a little smile, enjoy the quiet house, remember all the best things in my life (the people in it), just relax. 

Anyways, hope you have enjoyed my silly ramblings. As with anything I write, feel free to keep anything that made sense, ignore anything that made none.
