I remember years back when I did`nt have a worry in the world. At the time the biggest worry was making it to class, and what I was going to wear that day. There was a point of time where I knew a lot of people, and thought I would have those friends around in my life forever. I was super bad, so I thought I was..eventually my father watching from a far pulled me to the side and said "In life you`re lucky if you even have one true friend" maybe two if you`re really lucky. Looking back on all the years that have passed it seems like he`s right!
One thing`s for sure, the thing that did`nt let me down and disappear on me is the iron game. I recall years ago when everyone was hanging out and partying I was in the gym pounding it out. Day in and day out I was busting my a** in the gym, it was my place of refuge, it was my home away from home. Some times I would even train twice a day. My day consisted of work, gym, home everyday..that`s it! I remember actually getting teased and made fun of because that`s all I did. Now 14-15 years later it paid off I`d say. Took a lot of sacrifice and still does `til this day.
Now I look around to see who`s still around in my life, and I seem to draw a blank. A True friend is really hard to find these days, and the iron game to me has proven her self time and time again(can`t forget family). If it was`nt for her keeping me busy, draining the living crap out of me who knows what kind of trouble I would have gotten in to. She`s there patiently waiting for me wheter it`s sunny, raining, or snowing.. she`s there. No fussing, no attitude, and never judging me (well she does when we`re at war with one another pounding it out). Time and time again she`s proven her friendship worthy.
Through it all the Iron Game has been a true friend!
