hey hey hey.
I'm sorry it's been a long time since I've posted but yes, I'm still here. Anyway, I really want to get something out. For the past like month, I've been playing on a rec softball team in the San Dieguito Softball League. I joined late and missed the first few practices before games started. I hadn't played for 2 seasons, but when I did play I was an all-star (not trying to brag). I could hit super good and field super good. Well, this season I could not hit for my life. I struck out more than I ever have and wasn't making good contact; the only way I got on was from a bunt or an error on the other team. Trust me, I got so frustrated and beat up on myself so much and just wanted to give up. I got into a state of when I got up to bat I was like Why even try, you're jsut going to stike out anyway. But I kept going. I worked at it 3 times harder every practice, each time getting closer. Then I'd get out and get all frustrated and down on myself. So I'd push myself a little harder. Well today it all payed off. I HIT A HOME RUN!!!!! I got up there, took a deep breath, and told myself I can do this. I swung at my pitch, not trying to crush the ball, and it flew. Even if it wasn't a home run, all my hard work finally payed off because it was a nice solid hit. That's what happens when you never give up.
Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it. -Michael Jordon
Have an awesome weekend...and NEVER EVER EVER give up. I love you all. much love.
