You're just walking along, happy with life in general, and it's always worse when it's like that. Things are good and the world seems to be singing, but then the interruption comes and it's something nasty out of the clear blue sky. A loved one, or a stranger, just starts with angry stuff that seems to be for no reason. You know the problem is inside them, and not with you, but that doesn't help. Your good vibe is gone and has been replaced with the feeling that you somehow deserved this by being happy for a moment.
Perhaps the solution is to grow a thick skin like we believe New Yorkers to have, where any encounter at all could be gruff. I don't know, to walk through life looking for trouble doesn't sound like what I want. However, I am exercising my mental abs in preparation for the next sucker punch...
