Friday Guide

It is Thursday and the week is nearly over. The weekend is within reach and all that is between you and a great weekend is Friday.

That one day when everything could smoothly guide you into a relaxing two-day rest. Or it could evolve into a mind numbing and stressful day.

But what is Friday? In some cultures it is the sixth day of the week while in many it is considered the fifth day of the week. In those locations where it is considered the fifth day it is also considered the last day of the work week.

The word Friday comes from "the Old English frigedæg, meaning the day of Frige the Anglo-Saxon form of Frigga, the Germanic goddess of beauty."

So it should be that Friday is a day of beauty and wonder. Yet those days do occur when everyone else decides that your day will not be quite so enjoyable. So you groan and let the tension grow in anger about your 'situation'. Not a great start to a weekend they may include friends or relatives...your mood is already destined to be bad.

Jimmy Dean said that, “I can't change the direction of the wind, but I can adjust my sails to always reach my destination.” Your destination could be as simple as a wonderful weekend. Don't let the storms caused by others to keep you from it. Adjust your attitude to make your way to where it is you want to be.

You can determine that Friday will be a great day just like every other day. Enjoy the day and more fully enjoy your weekend.

Stay inspired my friends!
