While walking through a parking lot yesterday, I overheard a couple of people while they where either loading or unloading some boxes from a large van. One said to the other, "hey, long day, huh?" The other responded in a grumbling voice, "Everyday day is a long day."
I found myself suddenly feeling a little sorry for the person who said that. I looked around at the sunny sky; I looked down to see my jacket open and lack of scarf. I realized it had been days since I had a reason to wear my sunglasses, but there they were on my face. Although I had been going for about 11 hours strong without much of a break nor a stop at home, I could agree with that woman's sentiment. I don't consider myself a complete optimist, but at that moment I was. I, too, was experiencing a "long day," but I wasn't letting it affect my mood or outlook. I was looking at the positive. Sometimes, it really is all about perspective.
