to busy to notice.

Soccer at one point fulled my schedule. Especially, when i played in college, it was my everything. schedules for classes was picked around it, activities after school, friends, etc. So after i "retired" I didnt really touch a soccer ball. 2 years. And friday was the first time in 2 years.

Thanks to my friend matt inviting me to summit...i was reminded the joy & love i feel when i play soccer. I have pushed soccer out of my life for far too long. I have forgotten how great it felt to run up and down and up and down the soccer field. how great it feels to high five your teammates. to sweat. to kick a ball. to pass. to huff adn puff. to push. to get pushed. to run. to play. O the joy of soccer. I get a feeling i cant explain when i play soccer, like im on cloud 9. my life was too busy to notice what my true feelings were. I forgot the real reason why i went to college to play soccer. I made it my life instead of it making my life.

I think being so YOU HAVE to play soccer, the eat sleep soccer life in college made me forget how much passion and love i have for soccer. touching on this reminds me too, to set back and to look at the things I may be looking over, have taken advantage of, or barely notice due to how busy i am. i am going to work on this. :) like start writing again. or actually pick up the guitar more than once in a while. and to take on things that reallllly freak me out-like driving.

I am so lucky to have such great people in my life. To challenge me, to remind me, to help me, to love me and accept me as I am. For a long time i was lost, but the people and things i have been doing in my life has been helping me find me again. and as each day that goes by, I praise God for His work in me.
