π Star Wars Day
Today isnβt just another Sunday β itβs Star Wars Day. π
May the Force β or the Fourth β be with you.
I'm a big fan of Star Wars (though Iβll admit Iβm an even bigger Star Trek fan β too bad Trek doesnβt have its own dedicated day, at least not one thatβs widely known). Still, credit where itβs due: Disney β with the help of Dave Filoni, Jon Favreau, and their talented team β is doing an excellent job keeping the Star Wars universe alive and thriving.
That said, I do wish it didnβt take so long for new seasons to be released.
I've made this gripe before, but TV series used to have longer seasons and shorter breaks. Now it feels like we wait years instead of months. πΊ
May the Fourth be with you β and as we reflect on our own world, Iβm reminded of a moment from Rogue One:
Saw Gerrera: βYou can stand to see the Imperial flag reign across the galaxy?β Jyn Erso: βItβs not a problem if you donβt look up.β π΄ββ οΈ
Sometimes, looking away seems easier β but today reminds us to stay alert, stay hopeful, and stand up for whatβs right.
Whether you first discovered that galaxy far, far away back in the β70s πΌ (like I did β I still remember going to the theater with my parents and a couple of their friends), or you recently boarded the Millennium Falcon through Disney+, today is for all of us.
The Force is with us β in our courage, our hope, and in the way we keep fighting for what's right, even when the odds are against us. βπ
π§ββοΈβοΈ So grab your lightsaber, your popcorn πΏ, or even just your favorite Star Wars meme. Celebrate the heroes, the villains, and the journey in between.
May the 4th be with you. Always. π
