~:[CH14 - Day 10]:~ The Ball is in Your Court

They often say that the ball is in your court. However, even when you get the chance to make the next move or decision, it doesn't mean that if you make a good move, it will always succeed. Sometimes, things in life will work out and sometimes they won't. Even when you have control, things can spin out of control fairly easily. Life is like that. Keep a positive mindset, but always have a plan B or C just in case things don't work out. While you'll want it to always work out, when it doesn't know that you have other options. As we opened up home league play, I banked the time to be able to go to all the games. Practices were canceled due to the outdoor weather and thus, I didn't have to worry too much about rushing back and forth. The boys JV struggled early, but came back to take the win. The girls also faced some obstacles and while they battled back from a double-digit deficit, they fell just short. While the boys varsity team played a solid team, but they were able to dominate throughout the game. Sometimes what you do will help you win, but when you lose, it doesn't mean you did anything wrong or that your decisions made your plans fail. Whether the ball is in your court, just do your best, lay it all down on the line, and hope and pray that things work out. Tonight, our efforts brought us home two of the three victories, but whenever you do everything you can, there's no doubt you can leave being proud of the effort you made.
