The word Friday has many roots and meanings in different languages and beliefs but the one I liked the best was that the day in some cultures is associated with Venus. The goddess, not the planet. And here's why, just maybe, we all are secretly in love with Fridays and the weekends that follow them because...
"Venus embodies sex, love, beauty, enticement, seduction, and persuasive female charm among the community of immortal gods..."
I love weekends full of love and beauty, excitement and seduction and I'm not talking about the sexual nature of those words. Nature. The city. A great meal. Any of those things can hold a Venus-like attribute that makes you never want to return to your Monday routine again, wouldn't you agree? Seduction so great, that you can't wait until the next day of Venus to partake in some freeing of the work-week inhibitions. Yeah, that's my kind of day. Happy Friday readers!
