I love this game


Such a good feeling when you get to do something you’ve always loved but haven’t had the opportunity to do in a while!

I know distance it's said to tear people apart and make you forget things you like, but somethings just don’t change. The true passions in your life can’t be erased neither by distance nor obstacles. They may be put aside for periods of time but when you have a chance to do them again it all comes back to you in a flash. You’ll be drawn to it like you had never left.

It’s easy to overlook the little joys in life, to take for granted what you have. It’s even easier to try to forget how much you love something that you can’t do anymore in order to cope with it, but no matter how much you lie to yourself, once you’re confronted with it you won’t be able to deny how happy you are to have it back. It’s only when you get to play it again that you realize how much you’ve missed it. It’s addictive, it’s inexplicable the feeling of pure pleasure that can come along with something as simple. There’s nothing that compares to the feeling of having that basketball in your hands again, to take a shot and hear that “swish”…

And yes, you meet amazing people, and being a part of a team is one of the best experiences you can have, but even if you take all of that away and just focus on the game itself you will still be able to feel the magic, and you’ll know it when you notice that just by entering the court you already have a smile on your face.

I love this game, because when it’s good it’s great but what makes it special is that even when it’s bad it’s still good!
