A time I experienced failure was during last year’s school volleyball season‚ when I was a junior. I had worked hard throughout the season and towards the end of the season it all went downhill. It started with my coach talking to me about swinging down to JV‚ this had happened a little over half way through the season. He said it was a good opportunity to play more‚ I saw it more as an insult since I had been full on varsity up until then. I had worked my butt off to earn my spot and in my heart

Scars are left in our bodies and our minds as a reminder of harder times. As we grow older we are marked by our experiences.

Life is a great surprise I do not see why death should not be an even greater one “Everyone knows they’re going to die… but nobody believes it. If we did‚ we would do things differently….There’s a better approach. To know you’re going to die‚ and to be prepared for it at any time. That’s better. That way you can actually be more involved in your life while you’re living.” (Albom 82). Morrie feels that people refuse to believe that they will come one day die‚ and therefore‚ do not lives there

When I decided to join cross country team my freshman year‚ I never envisioned myself being a part of what would become known as “the best team in Hammonton history.” Three years ago‚ I finished the season as one of the very worst on the team‚ with no expectations being placed on me for the future.
