Like I said in a previous post, I played a terrible game the last time I stepped on the wooden court.  But things were different then.

Back then, I wasn’t really feeling the game.  I was playing for the sake of playing.  I was going through the motions.  There wasn’t any love there.  That’s right, I said it.  Love.  I really love this game.  It’s given me so much.

Saw my brother’s high school varsity team practicing, and I was so jealous.

I now realize I’ve been taking this game for granted.  I’ve started dribbling a basketball in my spare time again.  Also, I’ve never felt so focused.  I can’t wait to play again.  Not to redeem my past performance, but just because.  I don’t need a reason.  Just because.   Just because.
