"Once you hit the bottom the only way left to go is up"

It's great, hopeful advice. I will admit that much. Yet if you think about it, this "hopeful" phrase can be completely twisted around into something else. The only time your going to go up is when you hit the bottom.

I know a few people who get stuck in a bad mood, and let it get out of control. Their life can fall apart and they are so caught up in themselves they don't even notice. Not until it smacks them in the face. Bam

So why let it get that far? Why not work on changing it before it gets that bad? Maybe it's a habit or something, but even that is a bad reason. Waiting for things to hit bottom, no matter how shallow that is, doesn't fix anything. It makes you work harder to get out. It makes you stressed. Nothing good.

Taking control of the situation from the begining is the first thing. And, the last. Simple as that. Then it lets your gorgeous smile sneak out there a little more =]
