“There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.”
- Nelson Mandela



Last week, John's client gave him 2 tickets to the Charger's game yesterday and he invited me along :) This was my first time going to a football game and I have to admit, I've never really understood the game much less enjoyed watching it. With that said, I wanted to go more than ever in hopes of learning about this sport that is so greatly loved by our country. We were surprised to find that our seats were right on the East end of the field! It was incredible! The energy among the crowd was infectious and even I was excited. The entire time, John was explaining the rules and reasons behind each move and maneuver. As each pass, interception and tackle became clear to me, I realized I actually enjoyed watching the game. Me? I had closed off this game long ago and accepted I would never like football, but I was wrong. I'm even planning on getting a girl's jersey with the number 83.

As the crowds erupted in applause when the Charger's won, I realized how any sport can bring a city/nation together. Strangers would high-five each other. You can feel the pride that each person wore on their sleeves. Victory is a wonderful feeling.

Happy Monday!
