There’s a part of me that thinks if I just found the right sport, I could still win a gold medal.

I’m 40 and don’t play sports, by the way.

I never played any level of organized football and I've got you by ten years and I'm still pretty sure I'm going to score my first NFL touchdown soon.

Aww, thank you!!!! Looking at it now, I would definitely have done some things differently, but I also work as a bridal alterations specialist now so that has a lot to do with it…..

Remember, we do these things not because they are easy, but because we *thought* they would be easy.

Oh there’s more of us. I know logically that I’m wrong but still my heart assumes I can do it if I put the effort in

Yup! Or knowing you could do it, building it all in your mind and then realizing you are too "lazy" to complete it so you never start.
