Hobbies and passion


Something that has been bothering me is the loss having a passion.   A hobby is not watching TV because you are not doing anything.   The main reason people had hobbies was to entertain themselves.   I am not referring to work because most people are not passionate about their jobs.   There are some that are and they are just double blessed.   But if you are a person who goes to a job that you do not like and then you come home to a family you do not want to come home you are living a life of quiet desperation.   Which is what Henry David Thoreau said that most men lead.   I do not want to lead my life like that.   I do not want to get to the puerile gates and be asked why did you squander the life you were given?   That is my biggest fear.   I do not care if I have a long life.   What matters most to me is the impact I have on other people is it postive or negative?   If it is negative I want to fix it.   My relationship with God how I am going to help others?   I would rather have a fulfilling life then a long life.   But if you are just going through the motions of life waking up and are not excited about something I do not understand that.   I know that everyone has bills to pay that is not what I am referring I am not suggesting quitting your job and to stop paying taxes.   I just think everyone should have a passion or a hobby to unwind.   I said that I want to find joy in my life anywhere I can and I mean it I want that for everyone else as well.   It would be a much better world.   But everyone should be a kind and moral person without becoming un fun.   Those who think the kind of heat and emotion is gone from the wrestling business I could feel those emotions this past Friday night in Phillipdhia at the birth place of exterme the old bingo hall “The ECW Arena”.     I cannot believe Killer Kross broke Eddie Edwards kendo stick Kenny that was Eddie friend or a family member to Eddie Edwards.   Kenny was bestowed upon Eddie after he defended Tommy Dreamer last year at Slammiversary 16 in a House of Hardcore match.    Eddie basically earned Tommy’s respect.   Killer Kross is evill he may have made Eddie more unbalanced.   Moose’s betrayal of Eddie Edwards was competly disgusting he tried to have Eddie Edwards locked away for twenty years.   That is why Eddie’s wife Alisha had Eddie committed.   But Raven who checked himself in helped Eddie escape.   Eli Drake blames Raven for making hardcore wrestling popular he even visited him in the health vacuity to let him know that.   Eddie Edwards fails count anywhere match at Homecoming at Asylum   in Nashville with Moose on January 6th was excellent.   Even Alisha cracked Moose over the head with Kenny.   That made me respect her even more.   Falls count anywhere is my favorite match stimulation.   Eli Drake did an excellent job in the Monster’s Ball match with Impact Hall of Famer The Monster Abyss.   I have always appecated Eli Drake’s promo work.   I believed he was a great GFW Global Champion.   I thought Eddie Edwards and Eli Drake were getting better as a tag team it is a shame that there run ended so quickly.   But I do not think Eli will have a problem getting booked anywhere he chooses to go.   I really wish more wrestlers would focus on developing a distinguished character because they will always make money.   They may not make as much money when they were “hot” but they will always make money.   An example: Andre the Grant he drew money everywhere he went.   Because of his charisma he created an emotional bound with the audience.   So I would say focus more on that because that is a way to appeal to both the hardcore fans and a  general audience who like wrestling but they do not follow it and watch it every week they just flip through the TV and they find something that compels them to watch.   The WWE has been the master of this for years.   It is no different than producing a movie.   An example: The Avengers end game you want to appeal to the hardcore fan base and a general audience who has never picked up a comic book.   I do not understand producing wrestling just to appeal to the smart marks.   Some might say that wrestling is a niche product but I would still try to get more than just the smart marks who will always be there.   For the record: I am a mark not a smart mark.   There are other reasons I have a love and appreciation for professional wrestling other than the   in ring product.   It is also the larger than life personalities the programs drama and storytelling that is also appealing.   I cannot wait to see what will happen next every Friday night!   I am really looking forward to seeing Tommy Dreamer and Rob Van Dam go to the exterme one last time in the Arena in Phillipdhia Pennsylvania for probably final time.   It will be a very emotional match for me.   There will be that emotion and heat that many say is gone will be there.   I hope Tommy wins but it will be extremely emotional.   I hope that when Smackdown moves to Friday nights this October to Fox in primetime I hope it is successful.   I have really changed my opinion of Triple H.    I do not understand why there are fans who want All Elite Wrestling AEW to fail.   I am not saying you have to support them but wanting the company to fail I do not understand that.   I am an ECW mark.
