Well, i'm sitting here in church right now. I think i'm finally appreciating religion and what its all about. More to come later after i have some time to think

Baseball and all the wonderful things that come out of it.

So I play baseball, crazy right, and I was thinking about all the great things that come out of it. Like hating your coach, to having an off day and everyone laughing at you, and just overall sadness. But really, I have a great time and just have those off days that everyone has. But today in particular I had a thought. If not for baseball, where would I be now? Smoking pot everyday and alcoholism? Eh, maybe. Its too hard to tell but I really do appreciate this sport and all that it has taught me. God, I sure do hate these days when I have to much time to think, here I go.

The level of focus it takes to play baseball is crazy. You may not think it, but if you don't focus you can't play. There is no argument and no room for excuses. You flat out have to know what is going on all the time and can't let your mind wander. Where does this fit in my life, you ask? Everyday. How can you get through any single day without focus? You can't. Driving, work, school. Just about everything takes focus. So thank you baseball.

And what about hard work? Doesn't all the above apply for hard work also? You need hard work and perseverance to get anywhere because people don't like lazy people. As for baseball, when you have 13 or 14 people on a team and everyone wants to play you have to earn your spot. Only way to earn it is to work for it. So thank you baseball again.

Baseball is not only a sport, its a life lesson. Thank you baseball and all that you have taught me. I owe ya.

Test

I'm testing out my new phone setup with Blogspot. If you can see this, it works!

This blog is about life...

I got the idea from a Starbucks cup actually. "The Way I See It," is what got me started. Because this is the way I see it. This is the way that I visualize the world and all the little quirks that go along with it. I also need an outlet, and the internet is my best friend if you get my drift. So here goes my first blog post about life.

My friend is complaining about something I said to a girl. Now, for the sake of secrecy, their names are Johansen and Marry. Okay, so Johansen is mad because Marry is only attracted to him when she is tipsy. God forbid, this is only very little and I have never seen it. Marry told me that Johansen doesn't have a snowball's chance in hell to get with her. I of course relayed this to my other friend, lets call him Tod, because it involves our inter-circle.

Side note: Our inter-circle is very close and like every tight-knit group of friends we stick together and back each other up.

Back to the story: So, when I told Tod about Johansen's predicament, Johansen was in the car with Tod listening to every word. HOWEVER, Johansen already knew this so the reason for him getting mad evades me... There is more to come on this, hopefully I can get this figured out because without Johansen and Tod and Mary, my life isn't complete.
