A lot of the time I epitomize my own thesis that athletes and sports are almost completely worthless in society. In ancient Rome the peoples demand for entertainment and complete disregard for reality was one of the reasons for its fall. And are we so far away from that right now? Why do we care about an undefeated football team? (see global warming, genocide, poverty, war, terrorism, homelessness, pollution, etc.) There's a story about a guy that fell from an airplane without a parachute. The whole way down he kept telling himself, "so far so good, so far so good..." Sometimes I think that's what I see around myself right now in the world. Everyone hoping things will be good, not seeing the warning signs, and especially not doing anything about it and just wanting to enjoy themselves. And frankly I'm at the top of that list right now... Almost every day I wrestle with the fact that I should be somewhere else doing something so much more important. And the only reason I stay here is because I feel like right now, maybe?, I'm supposed to be here, and second I need some money to pay for law school.
