I took close to a decade off from my academic prime and dedicated it all to the game of basketball, but I couldn't turn pro, because my part was to decide and to strive to excel. It takes fate to make it happen, and that lies in the hands of God. Do I regret (mis)directing my efforts to what was never meant to be?
No, because whether I accept it or not, destiny wouldn't give a rat's ass. So I chose to appreciate that no matter how good I thought I was, how hard I thought I had worked to earn a spot, and how much I hated to luck things through, the fulfillment of my will and of things I work for will always be at the mercy of a Higher Will, a better Will.
