One good day does not equal two. One day, I allowed myself to indulge in a culinary delight that has been known to relentlessly create havoc to my bio rhythms and public behavior. Through the course of the day and evening, for once, I had a wonderful day. I was overjoyed and pleased, so the next day I thought my luck had changed and I should have another day at it because my concerns were of a past not too long ago. Well, sure enough, I fell flat on my face and told myself to remember that some good days are good days that you can build your hopes on and relieve a small fragment of the burdens we bare. But one good day does not equal two. Be lucky for the one good day and don't count on it happening again. Intended for personal weaknesses, not for greater good that can come too pass.
