When You're Sad Just Look Up Pictures Of Beluga Whales

Just do it. Go to Google. Type in "Beluga Whale." And have a little giggle as your day gets brightened by these magical angels of the sea.

Everyone has those days where a cascade of "things going wrong" leaves them sitting on their bed with a frown. I have them a lot, because I live in New York City and I'm a writer/comedian, so it's pretty much in my job description to be depressed. But I've found a cure for some of my rainiest days: pictures of beluga whales.

See.....this is just the beginning. That friendly little smile is welcoming you to join it. Will you?

Maybe you need to see this fellow, showing off his curves. Flaunt it, if you got it. I mean, I am already starting to feel better. But I think you need a little more....

Is that a twitch, or are you possibly smiling? Or just wondering if he is going to swallow that soccerball?

Maybe he's painting that picture for you. Is it too much to handle yet? Are your insides turning into glitter and funfetti cupcakes? I don't think you're there yet. I think you need to see more. Like this wedding crasher...

I think I've proved my point.

Don't stay sad. Just Google pictures of belugas. Or Flickr. Or AskJeeves. Whichever search engine your heart chooses. Or you can just bookmark this page and pretend like it was an accident if anyone ever sees it and is like "Dude, why do you have a motivational page involving beluga whales bookmarked?"

The Belugas don't mind. They just want you to be happy :)
