Spontaneous It's apparent that it's becoming a "tradition" that each post will be accompanied with pictures. The "tradition" shall carry on. ![]() Now let's try a different comparison of soccer rather than dancing. Life is like a soccer game, except that 90 minutes or more in a soccer game would be equivalent to the rough 60+ years of your life. So that's a heck of a long soccer game. In soccer, there are many positions; the defender, the midfielder, the strike and the goalkeeper. These positions all sub-divided into different areas of the playing field. So in a real-life context, you, the individual, play each part. The defender. Doesn't get many scoring oppurtunities, but is still a key role in preventing the offence of the opposition. The midfielder. Gets some scoring oppurtunities, but is more important for supplying good crosses and passes for the striker. The striker. Gets glory for scoring and is supplied with many scoring oppurtunities. Having to get pass the defence, many people do not understand the preasure they are put under. Last but not least, the goalkeeper. Some might say he's the least of importance and some might say he's the player of most value. Keepers have the job of preventing the opposition from scoring and are usually not treated with due respect, considering the amount of preasure they are under most of the time. A keeper doesn't really cost much in the transfer market. So back to the real-life context. When we play the defender, we have to defend against the opposition, protecting our "territory". Some times defenders might be careless and make careless tackles, but they still have the rest of the game to make up for it. So in life when you make slip-ups, you still have the rest of your life to live through no matter the scoreline. Lest you get substituted. When we play the midfielder, we are like "followers", giving all the great oppurtunities to the strikers rather than taking them for yourself. But if you do decide to take a shot on goal and you miss, the consequences are great. But if you do score, you gain glory and respect. Some times in life we have to take risks but we must know when exactly to take them lest we miss. When we play the striker, it's all up to us. You are the leader of your "army". There's nobody else for you to pass to but your other fellow strikers. You have to take the oppurtunity with composure and just hope that the ball goes in the net. Life gives us many oppurtunities and we have to be daring enough to seize them. It's okay if we miss, we have the rest of the game to play. And of course, the goalkeeper. When all hope is lost and the only thing standing between the opposing striker and the goal is you, the amount of preasure is gargantuan. You are forced to remain calm and composed and it's usually expected that you will definitely let in a goal, but if you prove the spectators wrong, you are a hero. Glory is yours. In life we just have to remain strong and focus on what we have to do. Not let distractions hinder us from our main target, keeping the ball out of the net. That's the aspect of soccer in a real-life context. Here are some more random photos taken only by my phone. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |
