The customers I dealt with were difficult, but nobody was mean.
The weather was rainy, but at least it stopped at lunch time.
A TV show we watched was canceled, I didn't eat my vegetables, and I let my projects sit idle.
None of these things alone can ruin a day and I wouldn't even say that I've had a bad day. Just some days are more tiring then others.
So the superhero trait I look to work towards today is optimism in the face of defeat. The people who succeed in life are those who strive towards that success, not those who let a weak umbrella or rude person on the bus.
My day today featured amazing conversations with my friends, a great dinner, and sincere hope for the future. Letting myself slide and look forward tomorrow might be the greatest gift I can give myself, forgiveness and understanding. I'm prepared to continue the week and I'm prepared to put my energy towards good.
I just hope for a little more sunshine to accompany it.
Follow-up on last week: My caffeine detox is still going pretty strong. I had 1 soda last week and that was even better then expected.
