Day 10: The gift of good health

Today we had the grand final for our soccer team. No, we didn't win. And yes, I am tried, but it's a good kind of tired. Running around on that soccer field (and being centre mid, I do do a lot of running) is tiring but it really is a blessing that I have the health and fitness to be able to play a whole 90min game of soccer.

It was lots of fun. But the real blessing is that I and all the other persons who played today, had the health and fitness to play a game of soccer without injury. So often we play a game of soccer and don't really think about how much energy we are expending and how difficult it may be for some people. So many people cannot do that because they are not healthy or because they are not fit. In that way we really are blessed.
