Derby Greatness
Posted: July 16, 2010 at 2:33 amI have been one busy mother fucker. Ok so that might not be such a nice thing to say to most, but Im just to busy to give a rats ass. I play derby now. Let me tell you that when you play derby you either do it half assed and never get anywhere (except you get to party like a derby girl) or you work hard and you dedicate yourself to the sport (and you party like a derby girl) and NO one seems to appreciate or understand your dedication. Well no one that is not a derby related person. My derby sisters understand, my refs understand, hell even the super fans understand im sure in their super fan kind of way. People in your life that don’t love derby the way you do, wont understand. They think you are just selfish and obsessing on your hobby.
Im not the kind of person who obsesses on silly things. I don’t or have I ever idolized any human being. I don’t buy the newest coolest technological toy as soon as it comes out. I don’t follow anything trendy. I pay close attention to the things in life that make an over all difference. I focus on the richness of living. I spent years focusing on being pregnant, birthing, and breastfeeding. I spent years on natural remedies and cures. I have come to trust my judgement and opinion on the experiences I have. I no longer doubt myself, there is no need to. I am right. Loving is greatness. Playing is greatness. Doing good is greatness. Damn it Derby is greatness.
To play it with your body mind and soul is to understand it’s greatness.
I hav come. I have observed and I have found derby to be worthy of greatness.
