Gratitude Journal- Day 48: Live Sports

I wanted to go to bed last night, but I had a sense that the Alabama-Georgia game would have some sort of interesting finish.

And it didn't disappoint.

In our "on-demand" world where algorithms can predict what we are going to want before we want it, there is something powerful about the fact that we can all share an experience simultaneously and all be surprised.

I think that is why live sports still command such high amounts of attention. It's a human, emotional, and social experience that happens with other people at large scale.

I am grateful for live sports that can help us feel in unexpected and human ways.
