Rain Rain Go Away

I hate rainy days. Especially cold rainy days. I love soccer. I hate to lose. I hate to lose a game in the sport I love on cold, rainy days. Ugggh. But there is something freeing about the rain, knowing that it washes away all that is wrong in the world, the fact that it will stop and the fact that life will go on.

A loss is hard, especially when you are a competitive, hates to lose type person and yet I had to put my game face on..."come on girls we can turn this around, keep your heads up." I hate when people say that, I really hate when I have to say it.

Yet in the face of such insurmountable defeats, yes, I take middle school soccer that seriously, I have to continue to cheer my girls on and know that we can rise above the loss and come back. And that, my friends we did, the next night. So the season ends. 5 wins, 3 ties, and 1 loss. The tournament is the week after thanksgiving and yes we can win this.
