Today I couldn’t beat the world. Today I didn’t like where I am. Today I felt regret, remorse and self reproach. Today I felt frankly crummy.
Uncharacteristically, I didn’t try to over-ride it with happy talk or cloak it with denial.
I just let myself be with my feelings of inadequacy and failure. In fact, I even let myself have a good cry. Then I tried to recall the last time I let down the wall of tears I’ve been holding back for the last 10 years.
The one thing I know about days like this?
This too will pass. And it did.
