Life has thrown me some curve balls. I have caught myself in pickles moving from base to base when I should have stayed safely where I was or committed to going all the way. I have struck out, I have walked. I have swung for the fences. I have scored. I have been tagged out. I have felt victory, I have felt defeat.
But I have played the game. I keep going up to bat. I keep swinging for the fences, and accepting whatever outcome plays out.
Life isn't meant to be sat on the benches. Life is played inning by inning, each with a new chance.
The only way to succeed, the only way to be victorious, is to participate.
I love my team. It's a little team, but it's mine, and it's perfect. I have all the equipment I need to succeed, and all the cheerleaders I need in defeat.
Some days are harder than others.
I say suit up. Get in the game. You cannot compete in this crazy world without taking a swing and shooting for the stars.
