Through many years, I've been focusing on the pitch and the outcome of whether or not I actually hit the ball to make it on base. I've realized that it's more about watching the movements the pitcher makes to throw each particular pitch. Will she curve her wrist, smack her glove to scare me, or throw a ball? If I can see what she does as she throws each pitch, I can be better be prepared for that brief moment when the ball reaches the batter's box. The outcome is now the result of my observances and my reaction to each of the pitcher's movement. I'm in control and I choose how I want the game to end.

Already Faded


I started this journey by picking one spot on the map.
It started off fun with interesting history along the road,
Stories and memories shared as it continued,
But now all it offers is confusion, exhaustion, and misguidance.
I’m still on the journey, but the road offers no scenery and no more more adventures.
The interest is gone and
The road I initially wanted to travel and the road I’m currently on are no longer the same.
Nothing is shared anymore and the one spot on the map continues to fade as I have already faded to it.
