Passion

Tuesday
Dirt between my toes, grit in my teeth, sweat in my eyes.

Wednesday
Jump. Jump. Hit. Jump. Dig. Run. Run. Run.

Thursday
Bruised knee--swollen arm--bleeding hand.

Saturday
Reach higher; hit the floor harder--right side floor burn.

Sunday
Talk, trust, hit the sand, push hard, play harder.

...the summer volleyball season has begun. I love it.
