The Weekend World wide 

So you think you’re having a bad day, weekend, month, life. This week at school was pretty tough for me. Surrounded by adults that accuse you and throw daggering glances. I thought I had problems but I was reminded that ‘if we all were to put our problems in a pile and saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back’.

In California fire authorities found a corpse in a burned out section of a forest. The deceased male was dressed in a full wet suite, complete with scuba tank, flippers and face mask. A postmortem later determined that the man did not die from burns, or smoke inhalation, but from massive internal injuries. After further investigation it was revealed that on the day of the fire, the man was diving twenty miles from the forest fire. The fire fighters seeking to control the fire called in a fleet of helicopters with large buckets to be used to collect water and dump it at the fire site. In addition to filling the bucket with water they also collected the unsuspecting diver. That day water and the diver were emptied at the site of the forest fire.

A woman came home from work to find her husband shaking uncontrollably in the kitchen; he had some sort of wire running from his waist towards the electric kettle. In an effort to save her husband from the deadly current she hit him with a rolling pin breaking his arm and cracking a rib. Up to that moment the husband was happily listening to his Walkman.

There are so many stories of people having a bad day, weekend, month, life. Some stories are extremely dramatic while others make you roll on the floor and laugh your head off. At the end of the day for those of us that are lucky we get another twenty-four hours of a new day to make better choices and dodge any drama that we might find ourselves in.
