It’s often much easier said than done, but life’s horrible days don’t seem so soul destroying when you take the glass half full approach to them.
Having to be at work super early on a 8C winter’s morning meant that I got a clean run on the road and my favourite spot in the car park.
Everyone else then running late with their (long) phone calls about the night’s events gave me a free 10 minutes to sit in stillness with the crisp winter’s air cooling my cheeks and jump starting my brain.
The school holidays meant that I was first in line when the cafe rolled open its shuttered front door for busines.
And the gentle sun that prods the day into action almost seems to hug you and say ‘whatever happens today, it’s going to be okay. Just get back in there with a smile and a deep breath.’
