Dreams from the Court

The person who encouraged my earliest efforts was defiantly my dad. There came a time in my life were a certain person told me I would never amount to anything in the sport I had my heart set on. I remember I would come home in a panic and just begin to cry. It got to the point were that certain person told me that the reason I was on "B" team was because of the way I shot a basketball. That was the last straw for me and so I broke. Little did I know, my dad had my back. He went up to the principals office and had all his ducks in a row when he talked to him. I remember after I had got home that one day from school, he told me that no one had the right to put me down and tell me that I couldn't accomplish something. That's when i realized that i would always have my dads support in what ever I did, even if I wasn't so great at it. But look were I'm at now, varsity basketball.
