My biggest interest in life, what I spend most of my life doing every day is playing basketball. It is my life's passion, and I know it well. I started playing basketball when I was in the 5th grade. I had no idea how good I was until I started to play. People was always telling me how good I was, and telling me to play for a team, but I wasn't interested in playing basketball then. For about 7 years, my life was nothing but soccer. Then I finally tried basketball, and I just loved the game from then on. I have been playing ever since. My first team was a team in my neighborhood. The team was called the West Greenville Seminoles. I then played middle school basketball for the Lakeview Lions. Then I got in high school, I played JV 2 years for the Berea Bulldogs, and now I play varsity for the same school. There is nothing more I would rather be doing then playing basketball.
My Inspiration, that got me in to loving basketball so much is the greatest basketball player of all times, Michael Jordan!!! |
If it wasn't for me watching Michael Jordan's videos, and realizing the true meaning of why I love basketball so much, I might have given up on everything I love or everything I ever loved a long time ago. His words taught me that life is worth moving on, and that I should never give up on my dreams!!!
One of my favorite quotes from Michael Jordan that kept pushing me forward in the game, and in life is:
"Some people want it to happen, some wish it would happen, others make it happen."
For me to keep moving forward I have to be one of the ones that's going to make it happen.
