The Journey
All of my fellow Cub fans are soooooo excited about the team this year... it really has been joyful from day one... and yet..Everyone seems to think that-
if god forbid - they don't make it this time.... it will be so much more upsetting and sad then it has been in the past.
Personally, I won't have any problem just celebrating the joy and excitement that they brought me pretty much every day this year... what else in your world has done that for you in the last 5 months, eh? It's brought friends closer, made you new friends of fellow fans and even those you could develop a friendly rivalry with... everyone is talking to everyone these days..we all have found common ground..
I
absolutely expect them to go all the way this year. I sit and cheer through the end of every game rather then switch the channel if they are down in the late innings.. if they lose I start planning my schedule for the next game when we can 'get it back'
But if by some outrageous misfortune, they don't make it all the way... the journey this year has just felt so special.. and there is always next year
