How do you define a "bad day" ?

[topdown99]

How do you define a bad day ? I lost a few cents per share on my stocks , I had an argument with my wife or my car had a dead battery ? I got an opportunity to take a real hard look at that very question this weekend .

My first question to you is , how do you think they define "a bad day" in the Ukraine ?

I have a friend who is presently stuck in Warsaw Poland , she went there to work and now finds herself on the doorstep of a war . While she wasn't expecting to be leaving this soon , none of us here are comfortable leaving her there with the chance that this conflict gets out of hand and expands . In an instance like this , you not only find out who your friends are but it also helps one redefine what a bad day can be .

I spent most of the weekend on the phone trying to get airline tickets out of Warsaw and back to North America , we have her booked out tomorrow morning . I know we will all feel better once she is on that plane but for the next 24 hours or so , we wait . 

So that is where my head has been all weekend and when I woke up this morning , I really had to ask , what will be my "rant topic" today ............ and I got nothin !!!!!

So maybe take a few minutes today , using that as a filter , and truly ask yourself , do I really have anything to complain about ? Your home will be waiting for you when you get home tonight , your family will be there , you'll eat dinner , relax and then sleep soundly . Not everyone will have those luxury's today .............
