That Is The Beauty of Sports | Enjoy The Ride.

This sports journey is tough and it is full of moments that will test you.  Moments that will test your love for the game, moments that will test your belief in yourself, and moments that will test your character. 

There are moments that will make you question who you are as a person and what you believe in.

Some seasons you are the best player out there and some seasons you struggle to get off the bench.

Some games you can't miss, and other games you can't do anything right.

Some days, everybody loves you and some days even your parents can't look you in the eye without showing frustration.

Keep your head up and know that you are not the first person to struggle and you won't be the last.  Life is filled with moments that will tear you down, and if stick with it, there will be moments that will build you up higher than you can imagine.

Your will, your faith, and your purpose has to be bigger than your challenges.

You will face challenges and adversity.  Your will and your faith and your purpose have to keep you going.  Your love for the game has to keep you going.


Its becoming cliche, but you have to have enough grit and stubbornness to just keep going.

Don't get too down on the lows and don't get too high on the highs.  Enjoy the journey.  Build relationships.  Make friends.  Take pictures.  Smile.  Cry.  Laugh.  You will feel every emotion imaginable.  

That is the beauty of sports.  

Enjoy the ride.
