Injuries

The worst part about injuries is sitting out of your competitions and games if you play sports. It sucks seeing your teammates and everybody else out there and you can’t be with them. Although mostly there aren’t many positive aspects to being injured, the experience  can teach you a lot. I have been injured before for an extended period of time that kept me out of football and it was the worst feeling. It taught me the love I have for the sport, even though I wasn’t playing for such a long time. In addition to that, it helped me really focus on school work and other important things that I had going on in my life, because I had so much more time on my hands. Coming back from my injury was also very hard because I had to regain my fitness and strength, which was quite difficult. Overall, though getting injured is crappy, it can open up a lot of new opportunities and visions that you hadn’t had before and you realize what is truly important to you.
