Ya know how when you played golf in high-school gym class and you were just learning, if your first shot went off somewhere into a sandtrap or the woods, you could take a mulligan and start over? Well, today I decided that you should be able to do that once in a while in life, too. When you're close to tears over some trivial stupid thing, it's time to just erase and start over. So today, I did.
Here's how to take a mulligan: First, decide that whatever happened earlier in the day was just a dream that you woke up from. Stand up and stretch. Now, pretend it's Saturday morning. What I mean by that is, no rushing around to try and get to class on time, or work, or get papers printed or anything like that. Do whatever it is you do to pamper yourself when you don't have anything pressing to do in the morning. Take a long, hot shower. Do your hair the way you like it. Put on your favorite clothes. Brush your teeth. Whatever makes you feel good, comfortable, beautiful, etc. Go find something you've been wanting to to, and do it.
That's about all there is. Just start over, and make it right. Easy as pie.
