I am thankful for having the opportunity to play the game that has shaped me into who I am today. By playing softball I have made many amazing friends and am lucky enough to call them my teammates. I learn something new everyday from playing softball. This game has taught me to have dedication for anything that I want to pursue in life. I have also learned to never give up. No matter how many times I was told no before I kept going because I knew with a lot of hard work and passion for this beautiful game everything will work itself out.
