Things are bleak right now. Not in the sense of, “Oh, the season is over,” because it isn’t and the Red Sox can still win out to guarantee at least a Game 163. But it’s bleak in the sense that they should be in a better position but they’ve played disappointing and lifeless baseball this week. Misery is understandable, and negativity is to be expected. They brought it on themselves.
But as I get older I understand the importance of positivity and the dangers of constant negativity. It’s not good for the soul! So let’s inject a little bit of positivity into the day because we all sure as hell could use it.
