Have you ever had one of those can’t do anything right kind of days? You know the kind of day I am talking about right? The kind of day that wastes no time in letting you know that nothing is going to go your way from the moment you open your eyes and or put your feet on the floor.
I think everyone has those kinds of days once in a while. Wake up and stub your toe right off the bat, or go to make breakfast and everything you reach for to make is either lacking an ingredient or doesn’t turn out. Gotta go somewhere….well, you probably should have gotten gas last night; because, now that your vehicle is running on empty, they have raised the price of gas by 23 cents a gallon…and guess what? You need a lot of gallons to get where you are going. What in the world? Did they declare it pick on you day and no one gave ya a heads up?
Have you maybe tried to do something nice for someone and had it misunderstood? Been accused of misdeed, or wrong doing, and you have just been minding your own business, doing what is supposed to be done? Had your motives questioned? Annoyed someone simply by breathing the same air as them; or, have a separate opinion on a particular subject? Really, I mean come on people…have you thought that you, and another person such as a co-worker, were on the same page about something, only to find out that you couldn’t be more wrong? Ayi Yi Yi!
Did you let someone down accidently, or shown up late to something really important? Have you not been able to give enough to another person and their expectation of you was so high, that you felt bad not meeting their expectation?
Don’t even get me started with communication because you might just as well know right now, that nothing you say to anyone, on this kind of day, will be understood the way that you meant it to be understood. People will get mad at you, they will have hurt feelings, they will look at you like you are out of your mind and not making a lick of sense, when you try to communicate with them.
In fact, you may even have the misfortune of carrying on a conversation with a person or two and be talking about completely different subjects without realizing it until the conversation is nearly over! That is, if you even connect with them on the phone in the first place; because, no matter how many times you try to contact that certain person…you continue to play phone tag and keep missing one another. Grrrrr.
Add up the miscommunications, irresponsible moments, un-intended power struggles, the time delays, accidents, losses, bad luck, negative emotions and upset people and you have to wonder; how can you move past a day like this?
Wow…been there, done that, RECENTLY. You want to know the really cool thing about one of those, can’t do anything right days? Here it comes…are you ready for it? Those days eventually have to end; because the truth of the matter is…there are only 24 hours in a day and you get a do -over tomorrow. Ahhhh…that is the best news I have had heard all day. How about you? Tomorrow is a new day…make it a good one, eh?
