~:[CH13 - Day 360]:~ Down South
I headed down south to watch the basketball teams play. The schedule worked out so I could watch both teams play. The boys got off to a good start, but fell short in the end. They played the school that three of my cousins attended, which was another reason I picked this game to attend. The girls played further south against the #1 team in the country. It was a tough battle, but they still fought hard until the end and didn't back down from the competition. While I wished for a win, I am always proud to see our teams compete to the end. Even when it's down under a minute, they still never back down and play to give them any chance at coming back or just to finish knowing they gave it their all. In life, we will face challenges we know we cannot win, but when we face up to them versus backing down from them, we'll see what we are truly made of. Even when you lose battles you think you should have won, never get down on yourself and as Aaliyah said, "dust yourself off and try again" and again. I drove back home fairly quickly that evening, a little bit exhausted, but not one ounce of me regretting making that trek.
