Some days start off the wrong way right from the beginning. Before you even leave your home in the morning you are wondering if it would be safer to just stay in.

Then there are the days that seem to start okay but just go downhill from there. Sometimes you can laugh about your misfortune. Maybe not right then, but a while later. Sometimes you may never be able to look back and laugh.

But the rest of us watching? We’re laughing. But we’re not mean. We’re laughing with you—even if you can’t do it yourselves—not at you.
