At the moment you are showing an honest love for the game. You get a considerable amount of playing time and seem to be enjoying every minute. However, personal experience has taught me that everything is fleeting. It is our responsibility, to ourselves and to our children, to teach that winning is not everything; everyone cannot be a goal scorer; not everyone always gets to play the position they want. Growing as a team is the real objective. Begin part of the team is most important.

As a family, we need to look forward and hope that everyone will be able to find ways to enjoy the moments as we do. Life, like soccer, is to be played beautifully; perfection is unachievable.
