The key to The next open chapter'
Cause I found a way
To steal the sun
From the sky
Long live that day
I decided to fly
From the inside" - Shinedown

I've said goodbye to bad days long ago. The only difference between a good day and a bad day is our perception of each situation, that compiles our day, and our attitude towards each of those situations. It's truly senseless to extrapolate one minute's misfortune into the next, yet that's exactly how bad days are created. Each moment, as it comes and passes is isolated from the last and the next. They are only connected in the human mind (through past memories and future predictions of course) to be summed up into minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, years and so on. Instead of differentiating one moment, from the next, we hold on to our misfortunate moments and extrapolate more of them in the near future - even though we are bad fortune tellers. We lose the opportunities of the present moment by practicing this self sabbatical ritual . If we learn, instead, to have bad moments, that still leaves the potential to have an overall good day. I don't have bad days, I have bad moments and sometimes many of them. I still have overall great days - because I choose to.

This is wonderful idea to see beyond the present moment when something appears grim.

Great article. Now, if I can just keep everything in perspective.
