Keepin' it in Perspective

I heard something tonight while going to waste swipes that really helped me gain a renewed sense of perspective on life, which has perhaps been lacking in the last few weeks. I was at the Den and while waiting in line, the guy at the counter was having a conversation with a woman directly in front of me. Apparently they knew one another because the conversation went beyond "Thanks" and "You're welcome." The woman asked the man, "How was your day today?" and the man responded with "Hey, everyday that I wake up is a good day! If I don't wake up ... well that would be a bad day."
