The sun rises later today than it does at any other day of the year, making it the gloomiest day. But that means that we’ve got 6 months of brighter days ahead. Embrace the positives when you can.
As Barney Stinson from How I Met Your Mother says, “When I get sad, I stop being sad and be awesome instead.”
