It’s Wednesday, again! When you get older, time seems to fly even faster than it did when you were going through puberty. There are days that simply are non-existent. Most of our days are filled with doctor appointments of one kind or another. We’ve been watching church services online for a while now, due to some health issues and my not being able to hear. So, we really don’t have a routine – a schedule – a calendar to relate to. What they don’t tell us about retirement, is that you rarely know what day it is.

Still there is something about Wednesdays. Maybe it’s a camel walking through the office announcing that it’s Wednesday because it’s also referred to as “hump day.” Wednesday is right in the middle. Once we arrive there, we have only two days left of the work week. When your mind is constantly at work on something creative – like writing, painting, brainstorming – that creates even more confusion. It’s kind of like an “Alice In Wonderland,” experience. You don’t know whether you’re coming or going. You don’t know what happened yesterday, so it’s difficult to plan for tomorrow. Curiouser and curiouser.

Wednesday can be something to look forward to or back at. It’s the center point of our week, so let’s make the most of it. Never look back at the mistakes you made up until this point. Always see the future and the goals you have set for that time. You still have two more days to do so. Of course, if you’re retired, you aren’t sure how much time you have left, but whatever God wills for your life can be an adventure in itself.
