Joe Flacco

When was the last time you were this happy?  If it has been awhile, you need to take note of this post.  I don’t have a lot of time tonight, but this message is short and sweet.  In recent years, there has been a movement that empowers women to pay more attention to their personal happiness.  Women tend to be natural nurtures and sometimes need to be reminded that they should take care of themselves and not just everyone else.  I know several women that take what are called “Me Days”.  A Me Day is time dedicated to refreshing yourself and doing the things you enjoy.  As a woman, I’m very aware of a woman’s struggle and the need for such days.  Men tend to get less appreciation for their sacrifices.  As comedian Chris Rock pointed out nobody ever says, ”Hey, Daddy, l sure love this hot water.”  Men (especially fathers) should feel more than free to have their own Me Days.  I know this is easier said than done, but don’t just immediately give up on the idea.  Find the time where you can or give a gift to yourself for a change (as long as you are still able to afford that hot water the family loves so much).  You can’t take care of others unless you are taking care of yourself.  Don’t be too prideful to admit you need to treat yourself better.  You’re the quarterback; I’m just here to protect you.

Oh, if you are wondering what this really has to do with Joe Flacco.  The answer is, not a damn thing.  I just liked the picture.
