• better late than never •
Happy wakes up with a stretch and a grin, while Grumpy rolls over upset life has to begin. Happy knows just the day before, Grumpy grinned making coffee to pour in their cup so today Happy says, “lay back down, I’ll get up.” While the corner of Grumpy’s frown twitches to turn, Happy pretends not to notice but they smile too. Happy loves doing things Grumpy doesn’t have to earn, because love isn’t love waiting for something in return. Sometimes Happy says its easy to feel helpless because no matter what you do Grumpy just stays Grumpy, but maybe that’s just what they need. A day to be grumpy, with out having to be what everyone wants them to be. Grumpy feels like a burden because all through out the day, they see Happy giving love away to them like it’s falling from the sky, But Happy never said they’re a burden, and Grumpy never asks why. But the truth is, Grumpy was Happy yesterday and Happy has been Grumpy before. I think the truth is we can be either of these characters , just a little out of sync with how our partner is feeling. Whether it lasts until evening or just through till they’ve had their morning coffee, we won’t always be marching to the beat of eachothers drum and that’s okay. No one will be Happy or even Grumpy every day of their life. This video was posted late because we’ve had a few days of that in a row, where our moods haven’t aligned, our days have been too busy, and by the time we climb into bed we just melt into eachother and fall asleep. This was the first time we had come together where we both had the energy and emotional space to finally reconnect and make it back to being in sync. That meant filming late, posting late, but the end result is the same. After a few days of fluctuations with our partners, It’s easy for doubt to creep in and say “I feel like we aren’t on the same page” but in reality, no one reads the at the same speed. It’s important to stop and say, we might feel like we aren’t on the same page today sure, but I know we are in the same book. You read at your pace and I’ll read at mine, & as long as we make it to the end of the same chapter, better late than never.
