Day 111

Day 111: Real Time
Day 7: 21 Day Complaint Free Journey


I love football. There is something primal about its simplicity, a mirror of how life works if we take the time to look past the cheerleaders with their silly pom poms.

Knock me down? I’ll just jump back up and get ready for the next disaster. I might have to sit out a play or two, but don’t count me out of the game. I have too much at stake to be defeated.

And when it all comes together, that pass sailing toward the end zone in a perfect arc, or the running back churning through a solid wall of muscle, feet tearing up the turf, it’s a beautiful thing.

It takes effort, sheer guts, and the absolute will to succeed.

Just like life.

Fall and football….life is good.

Day 7, the beginning of my second week in my quest to make it to 21 consecutive days without complaining.
