Football a.k.a. Passion

Few days back, I read what skp wrote about passion. It stuck a chord - the line “Feelings don’t change overnight, neither do passions” talked to me. My passion had been lying dormant for almost two years, I had not played anything properly for a long long time. My passion - the passion for sports, the passion for winning had disappeared.

And then it was back, with a vengeance. skp’s post talked to me. I wanted to play again; I wanted to win again. The passion made me wake up at 5:50, even though the alarm was set for 6 a.m. The excitement, the need to win carried me through the painful days, courtesy a badly sprained leg. We lost the semi-finals :( but got the consolation of winning the 3rd spot. I would have loved to win!

skp, thanks for helping me find my passion again :)

    the snap is yours ??
    the guy looks like he is left hand bowling and kicking football at the same time .. and definately not doing justice to either sport :P
    ahh yes .. he also looks like a left handed discus throw athlete .. definately not good at that either

    just kidding .. :D
    nice post !!

    The Best best part of this football tournament was to watch you play on the grounds, all the time I was thinking why am I not there on the grounds dribbling and directing that ball towards the goal posts.
