A Failed Monday. Saved by a Homemade Lunch and a 'Oh Well' Attitude.

The morning started with a cup of coffee.
I spent a moment before work feeling excited, wondering, 'What kind of day will today be?'
Unfortunately, the bus drove right past me this morning, but,
'The next bus is in three minutes? Well, I guess that's how it goes.'
I started my day with just a little bit of composure.
……However, I broke into a cold sweat when I arrived at the office.
For some reason, everyone was wearing jeans and T-shirts. In that moment, I remembered.
'Oh no, today is the photoshoot day, so there was a dress code!'
A huge mistake right from Monday morning.
I apologized profusely to the person in charge and was excused from participating in the shoot... I felt truly sorry.
What saved me from feeling down about such a rocky start was the delicious lunch that had been made for me.
As I savored the taste of home cooking, I felt my heart begin to relax, thinking, 'Ah, I'm so happy.'
Nothing particularly big happened, but,
I worked up a sweat at the gym as usual, and I'm able to finish the day safely like this.
That alone is more than enough to be happy about.
I used to fret over the smallest things, but I've realized that it's much better to take a step forward toward what's next than to lament things that have already passed and cannot be changed. Recently, I've been able to think that way, little by little.
Today was a day saved by a warm lunch.
There is surely no such thing as a day where everything goes wrong.
I want to cherish tomorrow as well, without missing the small flowers blooming right nearby.
How was your Monday?
