Looking up to who?

Do you ever feel like if you messed up you would ruin the lives of alot of other people.  Like the weight of everyone looking up to you finally was to much and you couldn't take it anymore and you let everyone down.  The pressure we put on people is ridiculous.

 

Actors, athletes, and leaders everywhere are always being expected to do to much and then we wonder what's wrong with them when they snap and do one little thing wrong and the whole universe criticizes them.  People should consider what they feel like before they hate them for doing something as harmless as drinking to much at a bar.  Then again, at the same time why do we constantly look up to people who are constantly doing wrong?  We expect more out of them but they didn't do anything in the first place for us to look up to them for.  I just hope one day we can accept the fact that everyone will do something wrong and it doesn't matter as long as they can fix their mistake. 

 

Food for thought.

Collar Bone Blues

Well i actually should've already blogged twice before this week but... I forgot.  Here goes my blog with no inspiration though.

I broke my collar bone second scrimmage of football this year which was two days before school even started.  A collar bone is the bone that connects to your shoulder and top of your rib cage and basically just supports your shoulder so you can guess that the doctor recently explained that i wouldn't be playing football again this year.  The expression you never know what you got until it's gone was brought to light.  As soon as it happened that expression shot into my mind.  Two-a-days this year was super hard, and I was having a hard time even finishing it.  Saying that, as soon as i found out it was broke I almost couldn't take it.  To have something taken from you in that kind of manner is unreal.  Alot of y'all are probably saying "man getting hurt would be amazing since I wouldn't have to do anything."  In reality though, it's heartbreaking to know that you won't be able to help out your team or even help them in the least bit.  I guess getting hurt is a good test of character though, and I feel like that's why it happens to people.  The hardest part is accepting the reality that you can't do anything to help out your brothers (when you play sports your teammates become your brothers) when all you want to do is forget the world and just do whatever you can to be there for them.  When you accept what you can't do though, it is also the worst turning point in your life because you will completely turn your back on the people that you swore you would do anything for.

Getting hurt is over-rated and if you wish you could get hurt to get out of practices or something you shouldn't be playing.  If you wouldn't step out onto the field or court and do anything for your brothers or sisters you've already lost because isn't our friends the only reason we play sports in the first place?
