TGIF

Growing up as a child, I used to look forward to Mondays like I was going to be given a prize when I got to school. I can hardly remember when I looked forward to the weekend as such. I still wonder till today who came up with the acronym "TGIF". Of course it has been recorded in the anals of time that music helped perpetrate the thought of looking forward to the weekend, what with the song "Thank God it's Friday" released by the disco group called "Love and Kisses" in the 70's.

Yes, the feeling of two days of rest (if you don't work in a demanding Nigerian Bank) gives a feeling of respite. The young up and coming single man, plans hooking up with "the boys" and the urban lady plans either playing a supportive role at her friend's wedding or spend time with her "boo", the married may use the time to restock their homes and most commonly, people will have a "lie in" knowing they don't have to get up early.

But all the above are not the crux of the matter. The intention of this write up is to ask, is anyone out there doing what they really love??? Has anyone grasped what they were born to do and been able to translate their innate dexterity to trade-able commodity? Is it accurate to conclusively say a vast majority are square pegs in round holes? Is anyone out there stepping out with a big grin on face, a rhythmic staccato to their steps and a swag to their swing?

Is anyone saying ""Thank God it's Monday"?
