A Bad Day

Every so often we all go through a bad day. We have people breathing down our neck at work, or we are arguing with a family member, or a loved one won’t talk to us. It is times like that when it is good to think about those who never have a good day:

• POWs/MIAs
• Prisoners 
• Hospitalized Patients 
• Those who live in abject poverty 
• The oppressed 
• Children who are abused 
• Women (and men) who are abused
• People in dead end jobs 
• People suffering from depression

Even some of these people have amazing fortitude and are able to rise above feelings of desperation and have a pleasant outlook every day. I admire these people and aim to be like them. Life is too short to wallow in self pity and be angry at the world.
