Hello, i cant get negative differences between two dates (only positive)

Carbon::createFromDate(1975, 5, 21)->diffInDays(Carbon::today())
Carbon::today()->diffInDays(Carbon::createFromDate(1975, 5, 21))

return equal values, but one of those should be negative :?

As shown in the readme ( https://github.com/briannesbitt/Carbon/#difference ) you can pass false as the 2nd param to not return the absolute value.

"The 2nd parameter again is optional and indicates if you want the return value to be the absolute value or a relative value that might have a - (negative) sign if the passed in date is less than the current instance. This will default to true, return the absolute value."
