I love to play. I choose to see life as a game — or rather a series of games — all of which I am good at! Right now, I am looking at life through the filter of summer sports.
I consider life like the game of golf. I take a full swing and ensure that I follow through. Even though there are sand traps in life, I can dig my way out and finish what I started.
I love to play tennis. I love the sound when the ball hits the sweet spot of my racket. It reminds me to create more sweet spots in my life.
I am a fan of baseball. I see it as the quintessential summer game, and I know that I am going to hit a home run!
Sometimes, I play the game of life as if it were a soccer game. I strengthen my skills and strategy. I stay fit. I have fun.
I am enjoying swimming this summer. I love the feeling of gliding through fresh cool water on a sunny day. I feel alive. I am enjoying my life.
I have fun riding on a tube down the river. I learn to let go and enjoy the ride. I am cruising down the river of life with ease and grace.
I am great at water skiing. I love to slalom and cut back through the middle and jump the wake. I feel free and invincible!
I love the simple pleasures of the summer!
Today, I feel grateful that I have learned how to live a rich life through the lessons of summer sports. They remind me of how to win in the game of life!
