David as we grow in wisdom we better see that having bad days is what allows us to be more human, as someone we know said, to err is human ;) well when we do become human we are better able to relate to others on that level. Let me ask you this...if I was an addict and I wanted to help other addicts would I have credibility more or less than some others that did not? There was a great movie Fr. Stu that had Mark Wahlberg portraying Fr. Stu as it is a true story. Before Fr. Stu was a father let's say he had a less than admirable life perhaps like Mark Wahlberg. Why may you think the Director with others had chosen Mark? Relatable and authentic...back to your topic. Do not try to make mistakes in life but head towards excellence, yet take those learning moments and build on them to your better self not wallow in pity with no lessons learned and be relatable and human!

Being relatable..and real, is the best way to appreciate the superpowers we do have. All superheroes go through that down phase in their journey, why shouldn't it be any different with us? Thanks for the Fr. Stu reference too Joe, never heard of that one!

Go see it Roman it is funny and real...Mark is a good one to play the role and I love that it was a true story that he brought to life! Relatable and authentic is the key! Thanks for chiming in!

On days like that, we need to give ourselves grace, accept that life is imperfect and complicated, and it will affect us and throw us off balance.

The trick, as you said, is to let it do its thing but not allow it to linger.

Tomorrow is another day!
