Thank heaven for one simple truth I’ve found to be evident in my life: each day has its own unique 24-hour lifespan. Put another way, each day is a little life all unto itself. Put even another way, the feelings, insecurities, challenges, uncertainties and general unpleasantries that exist one day—even given serious consideration at the time—tend to dissolve once the next set of 24 hours rolls around.

Of course, the way things work, this principle implies that happy, joyful, energetic things are on the 24-hour chopping block, too. They are.

And, you know, some life things are major. They require much longer than one humble day to begin forming shades of resolution or acceptance. But for the most part, you can be thankful that whatever sucks today will most likely be sucking it tomorrow.
