And despite people date setting, I still do enjoy speculating about time frames. To me, its kind of like betting on horses

Ok…that one wasn’t a winner, but look at this beauty

It’s fun. The problem is when people take it too seriously.
I like to explore all the possibilities, just like I take notice when stuff is happening that might line up with Ezek 38 for example. Or any prophecy that might apply to the near future or to the Trib. Because before the Trib He is coming to get us.
There's an air of hopeful excitement all the more as we see the season coming more and more into view. Like a kid before Christmas.
It's just proof we are happily waiting to see our Lord. Talking about the possibilities. Hoping.
Waiting on the Lord - God the Father decides when to send His Son to get His bride. He gets to set the date. We can ask - Maranatha please Lord, but our attitude is "thy will not mine be done". Our eager longing is pleasing to God.
The Jewish brides in Galilee at the time of Christ didn't know when their bridegroom would come for them. They were always waiting hopefully, and even more so as time went by. He had promised with that cup of wine they shared to come for her after all. So she'd carry on getting her things ready and staying ready every night. And if anyone asked the young man when the wedding was (it was an expected joke) he would give the usual reply, "only my father knows for sure" and probably everyone would grin and stop ribbing the young man. He was just as hopeful as his future bride was. But only the Father knew for sure.
I like the millennial day theory
And I hope it true.
And yes I will be disappointed if it’s not.
But it s a time frame not a specific day or even year necessarily
Yes! It is pointing at a season. It will be closing next year I think- with the year 2033 minus 7 being 2026 but that 4 year window is a large window of time, not a date.
I will be a bit disappointed too if it comes and goes, and like you- I hope it's true, and whether it is or not, I'm going to do my level best to serve the Lord down here with whatever time and strength He gives me.
All who love His appearing will be rewarded.
2 Tim 4:8
Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness which the Lord, the righteous Judge, shall give me on that Day — and not to me only, but unto all those also who love His appearing.
