Wishing your week away

Pardon the philosophical deep dive on a Sunday, but it has a little do do with what happens on Sunday in America. As I sit and watch the Saints on this day, I watch the people who take the time to get dressed up to go to watch the game in preson. I see the commercials about how people are ho hum on weekdays but on Gameday they are a different person. As if their lives revolve around the NFL season. I remember an old boss of mine said that once we arrive at late August, he starts to “wish” his week away. He’s a season ticket holder for the New Orleans Saints and his week once football season begins his weeks revolves around these games. While it’s great to be a fan of something, to live and die for the this seems a little weird as I age. I’m no angel when it comes to this, as if you’ve seen my posts I am die hard Alabama fan and my Saturday’s are very strict in what I don or won’t do because of my superstitious tendencies concerning Gameday, as I know there are many others out there with similar mindsets. As I’ve gotten older, I reflect more on how many weeks I’ve “wished” away because I kept wising for it to be Saturday. While I feel it’s healthy to have a hobby, appreciation, anything to fill your life outside of work, I’ve grown to stake that time to appreciate the now, smell the roses, or as I like to do look for that four leaf clover.

If you’ve taken the time to read this, I thank you for allowing me to share my thoughts.
