As I've said before, we should all have Best Days Ever at least once a month, ideally once a week. My most recent: June 21 - also known as the longest day of the year (coincidence? I think not).
For example:
For example:
- I did not have to wait more than 2 minutes for any mode of public transit all day.
- My office mate shared her Leonidas chocolates with me.
- I did not get rained on.
- Jeff made me a fabulous Lebanese-inspired dinner.
- The Senate confirmed a mentor of mine as a federal judge.
- We celebrated by splitting a bottle of nice champagne with our friend/neighbor.
- I feel asleep easily and slept soundly (for the first time in a week).
See, it's not that hard - a Best Day Ever does not require being nominated for a Nobel Prize, getting married, or having a successful IPO for your start-up that enables you to retire 30 years early. Because everyday life, by itself, can be sweet enough.
And for the record: sunrise 5:22 am; sunset 10:07 pm.
