I understand. Doing something productive always helps.

Another thing -- try to say something nice to everybody you come across. Those may be the only kind words they hear all day.

Even if they don't reciprocate, you'll know you brightened somebody's day, and that will come back around to you.

"...Another thing — try to say something nice to everybody you come across..." Amen, Scott!
I had one young cashier get teary-eyed the other day - he said "Everyone else yells at me because the computers are slow and the lines are long. Thank you" - and he shook my hand.

It made both of our days brighter.

Also, please stop and smile at the parents who are wrangling tired children - they may not have a way to leave them at home while doing errands.
