How Does Your World Spin?
People say that money makes the world go round. But, if someone asked me what I would do if money did not make the world spin I would be indecisive. On one hand, I would love to travel the world, seeing anything and everything possible. Experience new things, and meet new people. I could learn about different cultures and languages. How many ways can you say hello? "Hi, Holla, Aloha, Guten tag, Xin chào, Dia dhuit". With all the knowledge I would obtain from traveling I could spread it. I could become a tour guide and help people learn the history of the land. While I would love to travel I do not think I could give up playing sports. Softball is way more then just a sport to me. It has become a part of my life, like getting up every morning for school. I look forward to the softball season to be able to learn new skills. I crave the power and intensity I feel when I am on the field. When I stand in the batter's box I feel as if I could do anything. The ball is pitched, as it comes towards me I first breath, second get ready, third swing with everything I got. The ball soars threw the air reaching new heights. The adrenalin is amazing and worth while nothing can compare. A way I could impact society by playing softball is by sponsoring a younger kid's league and contribute to build new fields. I could help mentor younger kids in the game of softball, how it takes passion and dedication to go far. So if money did not matter I am not sure which path I would choose, but either path will be worth the time and experience.

Leah,
ReplyDeleteWhile you have some great points, be careful because you drifted from your main focus of where you would travel. You began talking about softball, which is then a different topic than traveling.
