Every person find his purpose at different stages of life, someone finds it out earlier, someone-later. Each person has his own way to purpose. I already have been doing volleyball for 8 years, but I couldn’t make successful career as a volleyball player or achieve some serious tops in sport. There are people of my age and even younger who have done it. Since the early childhood I thought that volleyball is my destination. Although my dimensions let me down, “iron”, as my trainer says, character , purposefulness and my conscientious attitude had high hopes. And yes, they sometime make excuses, sometime-no because there are ups and downs in life such as in sport.
I really love volleyball and completely give myself to this sport. But unfortunately, there isn’t so easy in life. We often fall through and our dreams break down too. So, we lose heart. And I “iron man”,as my trainer says, have given up in front of my emotions too. I feel huge injustice! I spill buckets of sweat and blood. So, why I haven’t get into a big sport like them? I feel worthless myself. But I soon have figured out that my purpose is something else. I haven’t succeeded in volleyball, it means that I will succeed in something else. The main thing is don’t give up! There aren’t impossible things for people who believe. We must keep on going the unpredictable way of our life. We shouldn’t relive our failures for a long time because there are a lot of them in our unfair life. We should perceive any unlucky event,of course, as an invaluable experience and extract from it the life lessons. We have to remember that there is something good in even the worst situation.
Today I’m really thankful to volleyball for everything that I have now. Sport has taught me many things in life. It has taught me how to work, set and achieve aims in spite of nothing. Thanks to volleyball I had met a lot of different people, some of whom are significant to me to this day. I am thankful to sport for these emotions and feelings, impressions and adrenaline. I think that nobody cannot experience such a spectrum of emotions in all life such as sportsman can feel for one match. I think that I will say “thank you” to my trainer for the time and soul that he invested to me many times. Each person has own life, and each life is interesting in its own way. Yes, they have found their purpose, but I am still searching. And who knows maybe my way will turn out more interesting than their because I will try myself in other things instead of volleyball?
