Everyday is a Good Day

Oftentimes I get asked how was my day (my teaching day) and if it was frustrating, I would say so but always add "I need to have bad days to appreciate the good days".  I thought I was living a positive life.  Then I talked to my neighbor who has cerebral palsy and lives in a wheelchair. He can't use any of his limbs and has limited movement in his neck.  It is difficult to understand him because his vocal cords are impacted.  When we said bad days are needed to appreciate the good days, he politely disagreed.  "Nooooo! Everyday is a good day".   ...All things are relative.
