I’m going to be a bit of a contrarian. Because in an alternate universe this day might have been the 42nd of Sheepuary. But because this is the time counting system we ended up with, and because humans like clean beginnings and endings, this one sits on a bit of a pedestal.
But hear me out: every day is special. Even when we wake up on the plain as plain can be 42nd of Sheepuary, it means we made it to another day after the 41st. A gift, really.
And we got to look up at skies that may or may not have painted themselves with vapour-formed cotton, or felt the chilling breeze on our faces that may or may not have signalled that those same skies might be on the verge of turning various shades of grey.
If I’ve learned anything in my time here, it’s that the small moments matter a lot more than we might have thought. I’ve also learned we miss those small moments if we’re too busy holding out for the ones seemingly worthy of fireworks.
There’s a ton of in-between that risks slipping away if we assume it’s merely ordinary.
Indeed, nothing is.
So I’ll be the one staring up at clouds and feeling the breeze on my cheeks. On any day.
