Each day, the sun rises. No matter how many doomsdays have been predicted, no matter his many times supposedly wise people have sworn that it will not rise tomorrow, it has, without fail.
People, when faced with no other option, will fall back on this as the last ditch pick-me-up. The very last refuge of positivity, no matter how bad it seems, at least you can rely on the sun coming up.
But this is an example of survivorship bias, we're only here because it has kept rising so far.
Plus we don't know about what's happening next Tuesday yet.
