Good morning miluvs… after watching El Classic 2 days ago I was reminded of this thing that has been on my mind for a while… there’s this word we often use but I don’t think we really know what it means.
FAN!!! According to Merriam Webster “a fan is a very enthusiastic supporter or admirer”. The word itself came about as a shortened form of the word fanatic meaning
“marked by excessive enthusiasm and often intense devotion.
Fanatic in turn comes from the Latin word fanaticus which was a nice way of saying someone was a bit crazy because they were possesed or inspired by a god or deity.
Truth is when we like or admire something we start calling ourselves fans. But that does not make you a fan at all. If you read for up you go see words like “excessive enthusiasm” way e mean say you like something go jump! For that level way nor..hmm!
C being a fan no fez hard! It’s as simple as pointing someone in the right direction to say oh check out that song, podcast or article, it is amazing!!Or attending every show/ match even if you have to sleep at work the next morning.
Buying a ticket for an outrageous sum of money just to be there live!. Being a fan is part of a relationship. There’s a meaningful connection and reciprocation of support that makes you feel like you are part of something special.
You belong to a positive cycle where your enthusiasm helps the thing you love to continue!..day in day out! winning or loosing that love don’t change
Wuna use to see as some player d jump enter field ele for go touch Messi nor…waaala! Or when them win Barca and we still put look forward to the next game with excitement cuz this love is forever…
So, go out of your way,be positive, be excited, a Lil crazy even possessed lol when you support that which you are a fan of!
Don’t focus on the price tag, time, sacrifice. These are all part of ride! You have all it takes…go out there and be a fan! A true fan!!
