Scene: Ralph jogging on a Monday morning.

“Crap! Monday already? What’s even on my todo list!? This is bad!”

This particular morning felt unique. I surely had unique circumstances. Particular stresses that only apply today. My solar plexus felt funny.

But… hold on… if I think about it… I can remember other Mondays that felt very similar. The circumstances and details might have been different… but gosh… the feeling is recognizable.

What does this mean?

Maybe Mondays are just “a thing” and I take some comfort in realizing that. They just hit differently. Maybe my situation this week isn’t particularly unique. Maybe I got a little carried away in my worry. Maybe this is normal. Maybe I shouldn’t panic.

Don’t panic. It’s just Monday Funday.

Happy Friday,
