Get Over It Day

March 9th is Get Over It Day. This new holiday is between Valentine's Day and April Fools Day. The premise of said day, is for people to finally get over any personal adversities they may be grappling with. None of us are infallible, and a lot of us like to kick the hell out of a dead horse. We can't seem to get past those little annoyances in our lives. Particularly those superficial ones, such as an ex girlfriend or boyfriend we broke up with 10 years ago, why a relationship failed, why someone doesn't like us, an embarrassing time in our lives, a mistake we may've made in the past, a zit coagulating on our noses, etc. Sometimes we talk ad nauseum about specific people or occurrences in our lives (a dead beat boyfriend or girlfriend) to our friends... who will politely listen but who're are, undoubtedly, sick to death of hearing about him or her... probably thinking that you need to dump and run... move-the hell-on if the stuff isn't working! Unless it's a dire situation and a loved one's life is in jeopardy, I think it's great to have a designated day to get past trivial matters. I'm guilty of it myself. I've pondered over things that I need to shut the hell up about and just move forward. Things, could indeed, be worse. Happy Get Over It Day! Flourish, grow and stop whining. It's not that bad.
