Get Over It!

It seems like every day of the year is National or International whatever day. Yesterday was International Women's Day, and QVC celebrated all day with their female entepreneurs. Today is National 'Get Over It Day'. This is the day that you, me and your mother should just get over whatever horrible thing you've been through in your life and move on. Actually, I've pretty much always had that mindset. Somewhere in my life, something told me it was a really bad idea to continuously see myself as a victim. There's a limit on how much time you can spend feeling sorry for yourself and probably even less time that other people will have the patience to sympathize with you. There's nothing unhealthier than walking around with a black cloud over your head and nothing more draining on your friends and family than constant sulking about what shoulda/woulda/coulda been. I work with kids with cancer one day a week, voluntarily, and I feel pretty humbled when I leave that hospital. I'm not just doing something nice for them, but I'm giving myself a gift by taking my energy and putting someplace where it's needed, instead of using it to mull over all that's wrong with me and my life (thankfully, it's really not that much). So today people, give yourself a break, and just get over it!
