Some days are so full of bad it's hard to think of anything but bad.
Some days are horribly tragic they seem to eclipse every past day and future day.
Death.
Death can make for a day apparently without goodness. When we lose someone we knew, someone we loved; when we have a friend who's lost someone; when we hear of some celebrity or even a stranger, we know that lives have been changed. We know that there is a community that is going to be left empty. We know that their entire world is less bright. We know that the grieving is just starting. How can today be a good day without the deceased in it?
Lost love.
Lost love is almost like a little death. A person that filled someone's heart is gone. No matter if they're still around, there's an emptiness. If they *are* still around, the emptiness can be even harder. It's hard to imagine that today is a good day when you feel so alone.
Unplanned change.
When you lose a job; when you have to relocate; when life kicks you down when everything seemed to be going well . . . it sees like the world has tilted off its axis and everything is off. How can today be a good day when you don’t know what’s next?
Bad days happen. The longer you live, the more bad days you will encounter and there is no easy answer to dealing with them. We can look to the past for remembrances of better times and to the future for the expectation of good days but today may just be a bad day and we may just have to accept it.
Do your best.
It becomes better.
Bad days end.
