For Love Of The Game

I am new to this hole blogging thing, so I am gonna start writing about things I have allot of passion for. One thing I love to do is play golf. Now I know what your saying, golf is so boring, but don't knock it if you haven't tried it out. I have been around it all my life, and all the people I look up to play it. Some of the greatest people in the world played golf like Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Ben Hogan, and Tom Watson to name a few. These were great men who achieved goals unimaginable.
I can't Imagine a better place to be on a Sunday morning on the tee. The sun just coming over the horizon. I mean its heaven on earth. Golf is not a sport that you can just pick up a club and expect to be good right off the muscle. It takes allot of time to develop your swing. Patience is a word you are going to hear allot in golf. If you are lacking in this quality you may wanna try something else. Your swing is everything. Trying to find it takes allot of patience. Finding it is just the half of it. You also have to keep it, and in my option that is the hardest part of it. The perfect swing has allot of variables in it. You must have grace, timing, tempo and whole lot more. I am just now perfecting my swing. I play with my brother, who is a very descent player by the way. I look up to him in every way, but that is a future entry.
One thing I can compare golf to is life. You have to stay focused on what your goals are. Sometimes you hit a bad shot, but when you get up to your ball you have a chance to correct your mistake. When you play a good round its just like accomplishing a goal you have set for yourself in life. Its the most awesome feeling, and its hard to explain. Now I know if you read this you probably want have a itching desire to play, but try one weekend if you get some time.

Change In The House Of Flys

Change: To make different in something particular

Change is all around me. Its in everywhere I look. Some of it good and some not so good. The one question I keep asking myself is how to decipher the good from the bad. I think the answers lies within all of us, like knowing right from wrong. There are things that I would love to change about me, but its hard. Its like once you make a habit of doing something for so long, and you take a look in third person. You find out that the way you do things is totally wrong. How do you change your way of thinking? For instance I have short temper, my feelings get hurt easy. Where do you start changing yourself? I think its always better to second guess yourself from somebody else's point of view, and try hard to change your old habits. Then there are the changes you have no control of, like I'm closer to 30 then I am 20. Its changes like this that really scare me. I just hope I can make the adjust and settle into these changes so that they don't change me. And then there is you. This is a familiar change that I hope works out. What the best thing about you is the way you change me. You change the way I feel, and in time I hope you change more of me. Like the definition above explains it all when I think of you. My life before I met you needed a change, and the lord set down change right in my lap. For this I am grateful. Time will tell how this change is gonna work, and I am going to do everything in my power to make this change particular.
