The day didn’t go as planned.
Not badly — just differently.
I had a version of today in my head. It didn’t show up. Instead, the real day arrived, did what it wanted, and left me a little tired and slightly amused.
We rarely talk about these days. They don’t fail loudly. They don’t succeed clearly. They just pass through us, asking for attention and then disappearing.
If this evening finds you wondering what exactly you did today, that’s fine. You lived it. That counts more than we admit.
Put the day down gently. It doesn’t need fixing now.
Some days make sense only after they’re gone.
Rest. Tomorrow will have its own ideas.
