What I have learned

[Terrapins Fan]

I am 56 years old. I have learned a lot in life, but sometimes you forget to transfer what you learn in one part of your life to another part.

I have been married several times ( this time for 17 years. I have gotten better at it ) I have owned several businesses, The one I own now, I have owned for 32 years. I have gotten good at it.

I played basketball, I owned a team ( Rec league ), I coached for 11 years and now I have refereed for 12 years.

What I have learned is it is more fun to start something than it is to finish it. By that I mean, learning what you need to do is fun, proving to people you can do it is fun, but once you get to the top of the mountain, there's no where else to go and you're looking around and saying, " I thought there would be more"

I remember starting out and all the fun games I had. I made mistakes and learned and coaches made mistakes. Now I am at that level, where I do a pretty good job, few mistakes, the coaches do a pretty goo job and it's not as exciting as it once was. I still love it. I am just not as excited as I was even 5 years ago. I am not even going to relate it to my married life, see, I have learned.

What did you learn this year?
