Champion

So my Club kids (teens) did something cool and wrote the lyrics to a song on the white board in their hallway.

So I listened to the song.

And I felt like it was nice.

And then today.....today was a whoa day.

I can't even explain to you all that happened today it it was like I wanted to scream "SERIOUSLY" to the universe.

And I drove home in silence. Telling myself over and over that my kids burdens are not my burdens to carry. That I can be a sounding board and a shoulder but I'm not Wonder Woman.

And as I got closer to my house, I decided I needed music.

So I turned on my radio and the beginning of "Champion" came on. And I sat in front of my house and recharged because as much as I want my kids to follow their dreams and be in the Hall of Fame (preferably Boys & Girls Clubs of America Alumni Hall of Fame), I can only do so much.

And on days like today, I have to remind myself I know what I'm doing.

And life is good.
