Yesterday night I was surely in my element; in fact, I was in my natural habitat: the basketball court. I've played basketball since childhood and it has always been a big part of my life - and my identity.
Countless hours could be devoted to building my skills - and honing and refining them. But as I reached adulthood, the opportunities to play the sport I love has tailored off. And, to my dismay, so have my skill and athleticism.
That's normal, you would probably say. And I get that! It's just frustrating when you cannot perform actions and move your body like you did before; I've become a shadow of my former self.
From January to June, however, I'll be playing once every week, so I'm looking forward to see how much of my abilities I can get back. That remains to be seen.
