So today I asked a regular customer, an older man, how he was…he was doing alright but didn’t really mean it. I said, “Yeah, it’s one of those days. I’m just hanging in there.” I don’t know exactly what I said but it wasn’t a good day and I let him know. He said, “Now you sound like me” and laughed. He went on to say his best days were behind him. I repeated what he said, kind of questioning…did he really mean that. Yep. He said, “your best days are behind you too.” Ugh! Really? Thanks dude. LOL
But really? I was hoping for some more “best days” or at least better than I have had in a while. I don’t really believe my best days are behind me. When did that happen? Childhood? Sure, I’m not so young anymore but certainly, even in middle and old age, I still have some super awesome days ahead, perhaps even the best? I hope. I mean, am I so settled into this rut? Are my best days behind me?
