When my alarm went off this morning, I did not want to get out of bed and go play soccer. But then, of course, I thought about the example that would set for my son and I dragged my sorry ass out to the athletic fields and scored within the first thirty seconds of the game.
My second goal, however, was the most satisfying of any I’ve scored in soccer. It was a head-snapping header of a ricochet from distance that the goalie got a hand on but could not stop.
So, the lesson, folks, is “just do it,” even if you haven’t had enough sleep and it’s pretty warm and comfortable in that bed.
Also, VOTE!
