LEARNED

An experience in my life that has changed my life would be my ninth grade basketball season. Our record did not match the way we played. If I remember correctly we won three games in a twenty game season. Now normally when you start losing a lot of games in a season you have two options. One you can either quit or keep fighting. Now during the season we never gave up and got better during practice each day. We had fun doing what we loved and the coaches made it an experience that I will never forget. During the season adversity can hit you multiple times. Typically adversity will bring the best or worst out of the individual. This defines you as a person. During the season I learned many life lessons about myself. During workouts I sprained my foot. I missed out on the first scrimmage. During the basketball season involves plenty of suicides. Except during the ninth grade season you must do wall sits to go along with your suicides. Now during the season you go through plenty of ups and downs. I started down but ended on top. I played the whole season on a sprained ankle. I kept fighting no matter the pain. I learned a lot about myself as a person. I realized the will respond in a positive manner when adversity hits. I realized that my strengths are many others weaknesses. I learned a lot about myself. I learned more about myself during the short season I did during my fifteen years on life. During the season they teach you life lessons. They teach you how to be an adult to try and give you the best opportunity when the real world hits you.
