SELF IMPROVEMENT

Regional Tennis Medal, Emporia, KS

Life isn’t about being better than anyone else except yourself. Perfection may not be possible, but improvement is always there for the effort. We may get beaten in the game, but if we got better, we were victorious.  We often don’t know what’s possible until we encounter a higher standard.

I still recall a state doubles tennis match when my partner and I were waxed by superior opponents. Our coach told us after the match on the KSU campus that one of the players on the other side of the net was the son of the university tennis coach.  But the tough competition ranked it as the best tennis I had ever played and I still think positively about the experience!
