Kamál (Perfection), 9 ‘Izzat (Might) 176 B.E. - Monday, September 16, 2019
PROMPT: September 16th - Have you ever played a sport? Were you any good? What did you like about it? Why did you stop playing (if you did)? The only sports I ever played was in Junior high (Middle School) in Gym class. I played tennis and soft ball, neither of which I was good at. With the exception of the summer and winter Olympic Games, I don't watch sports on television. I don't attend ball games, unless someone else pays my way, and buys me a hot dog, soda, and any other type of non-alcoholic food and drink they sell. I remember, when I was in Junior high, going to a track meet. We had to go, even if we were participating. A friend of mine broke her wrist, which was the only exciting thing that happened at that track meet. |
