Life really is about the little
things. If you can develop an appreciation for them, then you’re doing all right.
The other day at practice, they ran 1:1 drills, and the kids have a little game
where if you win the 1:1 battle, the defeated are supposed to carry the
victor’s bag out to the parking lot. N went up against an older, bigger, and
more experienced teammate and won. I found this out when we were leaving the
arena and N’s teammate was lugging his bag. I asked what was going on and was
enlightened, not without a tinge of joy and pride, mind you.
N noticed that his teammate was
struggling to haul two hockey bags, and took the high road and said he would do
it, relieving his friend of his duties. Once again, I was proud of him.
Sometimes just knowing that you won is enough.
Until the next time, thanks for
reading, and thanks to
