Sports: On- field and Off-field
Today i got a chance to attend a sports day function in one of the renowned school of the city. For all its a matter of pride and honor to see many students and athletes participating in school and especially in sports, for them its a feather in the cap to be in sports along with academics. Spirited athletes put in their hard work and life into every activity they do. Some while getting in physical aspire to become state and national level players as well as some aspire to get into armed forces based on their caliber and physical strength. while watching the pumped heart beats and enthusiasm of the students one thought provoked me to question myself about the irony of today's situation which is displayed through empty streets in colonies, younger kids playing maximum time on tabs and computers, their talks are more about animation than ambition. Most of the time a student is occupied in the stress and pressure of pear or parents. They want to excel in their lives in all fields but we the society, suppress their desires and dreams by making some or the other excuse. Why this enthusiasm is not visible off the field, why we fail in putting trust and understanding the potentials of our wards. The sound of claps and words of appreciation fill a participant with all the strength he needs to overcome his fears on field, then Why when he desires to play outside the school many of us stops him because of our fears and notions. A player is a player and he will be player if you allow him to. Its not about the person its all about the attitude we hold. So its a mirror for you that motivate the kids to play more outside the school. Its always a great way to learn the best examples of life which you are losing while being busy on online gaming portals. The feeling of falling and getting up, The feeling of cheering your friends while they contest with each other, Cracking jokes and giggling while soiling yourself in mud, Running against the Wind and shouting out loud after achievements, they hold no comparison to sitting at home and clearing levels on gaming portals. Rise up and play.! Life starts where friends meet.
