Fake a good mood. Sometimes it puts you in a good mood

[humble soul]

Customer service. Haven't done many of those jobs. But faking a smile might sometimes actually make you feel better.
Not always.
I sometimes wonder about those cheerful sales people. How do they behave at home? Are they cheerful or melancholy?
I pretend to be enthusiastic with my dog. Exaggerated tone of voice. Dog falls for it. Which puts me in a good mood anyway. Rewarding.
Human beings are more challenging.

I faked a good mood for decades. It was only denial. Denial does actually have a place in helping one to cope, but it is a losing endeavor bound to fail under the weight of its own failure to adequately offload a real burden. Artificial actions concerning real problems is not something I would recommend long term.

Fake..no.. praising Him when I didn't feel like it and the Joy does come. Walking by faith.. to me no offense but for me it would be deceiving.

Its a new chapter. Fresh start. Im going from negative to positive. Slowely but surely.
