Oh my the stories we can tell eh? You ever give yourself to the game? Life game, volleyball, soccer, hockey? You give 900% everyday and then you get an injury, you’re out, you are down.. but you wanna play. You love it so much you want to play!! Accommodations can be made, they are available to you. They give you the handicap, the one up, the assistance to play with/ for your passion.
We are talking about the ones that are up early 5:30 to practice, play the game and stay until 8 to practice some more. During the game, you go the extra mile almost a thousand miles! There is always that almost moment, so close to that extra point, the goal line, the shot you miss. Why does the focus turn to that? Why do you beat yourself up over that? Why is it what everyone talks about? You give and give, you are an example to others, but people look for flaws!
I think people resent those that do well. They see the success and drive as a threat, maybe because they don’t have it? Maybe because someone being happy or passionate about seemingly ordinary things is unusual? Don’t poo poo on someone’s parade. Kids love to change the rules of the game, when they are losing. Some grown ups are children. When the game changes suddenly, when it feels like sabotage, don’t look within. It is not you, you keep your passion! I could tell you what Momma wouldn’t say…
