Some of the scorers skid on their knees over the field while others break into a dance as a way of celebration .
I can get three goals on a good day, and that is my life. I can not sweat it. is three opportunities every Saturday to show my celebration dance.
Do not stop to wonder why a man at age fifty-six would waste away his life and risk bodily injuries playing soccer. Just is that I do, every Saturday morning, and if my knees permit Because it is the knees that are the problem I intend to continue for the foreseeable future.
I took possession of my sweater. I took possession of my sweater. I took possession of my sweater. I was left on a side table and began to walk from the other sweat-soaked players towards the exit sign of the indoor soccer arena.
Upfront, Alex and Pedro were sitting down on the Astroturf, taking off their soccer boots, stuffing them into duffel bags and putting their heads, their arms in their street clothes.
& # 39; You saw my four goals today and my dance? I shouted as I approached them.
Yes, we did! How many goals did you score last year? & # 39; Alex responded.
& # 39; We lost count of the number of goals you scored, & # 39; added Pedro.
You are really scoring machine, you are really scoring machine, and the problem is that you do not play defense, and that is why other players do not like you. Mix up your game, play defense sometimes. & # 39;
I'm going to say, 'I'm going to say, & # 39; as long as my mother loves me, I do not care who hates ------- & # 39; a sentence which was interrupted I, turned on and it was Mike speaking.
In any case, Mike is one of those short-statured men who for some reason think that in order their shoulders are in constant elevation, their own muscle system humped and knotted.
With a walking by walking by, and on his way out of the soccer arena, very near the exit door, he decided to turn back. With a smirk on his face and two cold, unmoving eyes he said, You know what? your goal celebration dance sucks.
Someone, like my brother Vince, have the gift of quickly decoding this vital difference in a comment, but I do not. Vince reacts like a viper when he decides who to bite back or who to spare.
On many occasions he has briefly stood, I have played picked up soccer together with a couple of years, glaring in my face, both eyes in full beam; but in the end has backed down, with what I have done is within the limits of a clean game.
Your celebration dance sucks, 'deserve? Similar cynical comments are plentiful everywhere. It could have been an an uncle or an aunt saying your soccer shoes suck, your ideas suck, your degrees sucks, your wealth sucks, your hair sucks, or your stories suck.
On a plain, tit-for-tat level, the comment descriptions a & # 39; Shut up, you short idiot & # 39; response. But it happened that on that day, that moment, I was not at a low level of mind. I happened to be at a defect level, which prompted me to brood over the comment. & # 39; Where is this fellow coming from?
Is his comment, the longest sentence he has said to me in two years, an overture for a better relationship in the future? If it is, then hurling an insult at him would not destroy such a budding intent.
Did he need to to comment on an outright decision to ridicule me, a way to the project an imaginary dominance of a diminutive physique? Then a kindhearted & # 39; turn the other cheek & # 39; Be confronted, an eye for an eye, while we wait for Judgment Day?
Throwing one insulting word is easy; What is hard is to tell what is in the heart of the men and women who throw insulting words around, and if, as my seventeen-year-old son said, they deserve a compassionate response.
They have let their guard down, exposing the childishness lurking inside every adult man.
Misinterpretation of a comment is a common mistake many people make. My late uncle Ralph, although everyone in the village said he was a kind man with a good heart, prospered on benign mockery, and was always on the edge between praise and criticism; he lived to be one hundred and four years old.
Without a doubt, the world unfortunately is filled with people who are out to destroy others with a feeling those people so that you can respond impeccably, because of you do not they will walk all over you all the time?
, Enemies always muddy up their original intent during clarification.
While negative comments spur some men into creative energy, they may be devastate a child, a young adult and even adults who lack confidence or self-awareness.
I will come up so I can come up with my mouth and I will not have anyone to steal my joy. After a thoughtful, brief moment, and with a broad smile, I looked Mike in the face and answered, & # 39; with a new and a better dance next week. & # 39; A response which soothed his disturbed little soul.
