The Happiness Thermometer

Health and stress. Kinda go together.

Brought that home to me late last week when I paid a visit to my doctor.

The usual questions around an issue I’ve been dealing with. Annoying fatigue after I eat. Doesn’t matter what it is. Carrots or pasta.

Then I get the stress question.

I answered it honestly. Yup. There’s lots going on. Mostly career/job/financial related.

Then I get the depression questionnaire.

Hopeless was mentioned. Some days it seems are hopeless.

I left thinking I should focus on hopeful not hopeless.

There’s always a reason for everything. The crossroads are designed to send you elsewhere. Maybe somewhere you don’t expect.

Health is wealth as dear dad used to say.
Better pump up the happiness thermometer.
