Journey Basketball League

It was really great having fellowship with brothers and some sisters through something as simple as basketball. I realized that having a good attitude can make a world of difference. Let me explain:

Yesterday night, I was having a lot of complaints. I didn't like the team that was chosen for me, the distance, the costs, the amount of time it would take. I almost wanted to tell David that I didn't want to be a captain anymore and be a quitter...

However, late into the night... I stumbled onto a Youtube video of some Xavier basketball players. Don't ask me how. They were freaking hilarious though. Basically, they are "walk-ons" or guys who aren't scholarship players. They self-proclaimed themselves as the "three-headed monster". LOL. I couldn't help but crack a smile, and I was definitely taken aback by their upbeat, joyful attitudes. They were simply thankful to be part of the team, thankful to have the opportunity to be a part of a community. Anyways, after this video, I was reminded to be thankful myself for the same things and ditch the negatory attitude as soon as possible. Pretty inspiring if I'd say so.
