It seemed everyone in the world had a hard day. Things just went wrong. Pipes exploded in bathrooms, people failed their entry exams, some mourned the loss of a cat, there was rubbish weather on weddings, kids let go of their balloons, and all in all everyone had something crap happen to them.
It didn’t go unnoticed. The following day it made the news about how the previous had been the hardest day in recorded history, for everyone. That was the straw that broke the camel’s back, because everyone realised we’d all been having too many bad days lately. That’s when we stopped simply knowing what needed to change, and actually did it.
