Closest to My Heart
April 28, 2008
What is the most precious item in your life? The one thing that you cannot do without. The thing in life you value the most. This question does leave some room for interpretation. There is no wrong interpretation. Please answer with what pops into your head first. Please do not over think it!
Well, because it said the first thing that popped into my head, I’d have to say, track and field. Though it may sound a little weird, I can’t imagine my life without this sport. It’s just something I absolutely love to do, and in many ways, it’s brought my family closer together. I know my sister will always be there to tell me to “use my hips” or to “get my head up” while throwing, and I think that the companionship that I’ve formed with my sister is what makes me value the sport so much. I know it’s something I couldn’t live without because when I’m on vacation, or just haven’t thrown in a while, I have a strong want to throw. I suppose it’s because it calms my nerves, and because I’m good at it.
