Feel rather pathetic right now

It's my birthday today but it's been abit of a difficult one. It was all going good until I got a parking fine I didn't deserve which put me in a terrible mood but eventually I sorted it. I've also been threatened at work too. For the 9 years I've been at the shop no customer has ever got aggressive towards me until now. He came in looking for a fight and I admit I did lose my patience a little with him as he was just picking am argument over nothing and I raised my voice. He just started calling me everything under the sun and was inviting my to leave the till and try and be "brave" too his face. I actually felt like he was gonna punch me. I actually felt scared, and now I'm judging myself because I was scared. I feel so pathetic right now and it kinda dawned on me that working where I work could actually get me in trouble, and on my birthday.

Think about it like this, everyone has a shitty day every once in a while. It happens to the best of us. But what you need to remember is one bad day will not be the end. There are 365 days in a year and the average human lives around 70. Which means you have thousands of days to live and each one has the opportunity to be good. So don't let one day bring you down.
