Moods are complicated and very much a part of who we are. People would be very boring without them.

That's one of the peculiar things about bad moods - we often fool ourselves and create misery by telling ourselves things that simply are not true.

I've learned over the years that people are human and have mood swings, regardless of how talented they are. Today, I'm looking at life from a realistic point of view instead of the way I would want things to be.

I tend to keep things that bother me clandestine... well-hidden. I'm also not very good at recognising the reasons that change my moods - they just seem to happen, which is not great for those around me.

I have the choice of being constantly active and happy or introspectively passive and sad.

My natural disposition is pretty joyful, but you know, I have bad days and sad moments like anybody else.

I fight manic-depression, and I have been able to live battling that sadness that I get sometimes.

I try to make my mood uplifting and peaceful, then watch the world around me reflect that mood.

I have a very good life, so I have nothing to complain about. Sometimes, I just have existential angst.
