Yesterday I woke up on a spiritual high. All was perfect in the world. I couldn't wait to start my day! I felt love for all mankind and everything was in the right perspective.

As my day began, knowing what I know about the world, I took nothing personally and found the humor in each encounter whether it was positive or negative. At the end of the day I went to bed with a feeling of gratitude and peace and was looking forward to another day on my wonderful journey.

Today I woke up and the first thought that entered my mind was, @!%#% another day! I don't know where this feeling came from, whether it's hormones, past life crap coming back to haunt me or childhood trauma and I don't care. All I know is I am not happy and for some reason I prefer to feel this way! If someone even dares to look at me cross eyed, I am quite prepared to rip his or her head off! I am reveling in my misery and seem to be loving it!

What happened, and why am I embracing this misery as if it's my best friend?

This scenario is one we have all been through at one time or another. Sometimes we can't keep that sense of spirituality for longer than a couple of days before we fall off the spiritual wagon and back into the tangible reality of our world. And this usually occurs right at the moment that the person in the car next to you cuts you off and then proceeds to flip you the finger.

So where does this leave us? Are we less spiritual or spiritually challenged if we can't seem to keep ourselves out of the occasional funk? Do Buddhist Monks ever wake up on the wrong side of the bed?

I am pretty sure that all of us experience a funk from time to time. A key determinate in the length of our "bad mood" is based on our personality and to what degree we have suppressed our emotions. Once an emotional situation has been relegated to the subconscious we no longer have choice over how, when or to what degree that emotion is going to be expressed. Our subconscious could have an emotional leak at any point in time and finding the source is about as easy as finding a water leak in your home! But the key is how long does the emotional leak last.
