Oh what's it like to be a kid, still learning, still growing, still trying to discover the world around us.

But in the tight spaces of life we don't get a real chance to show our true selves, we don't get to express who we really are, what we really are.

I grew up in a household that shunned all these things, poor young me who knew no better than to hide all those things away.

It started from the ones who gave birth to me and soon after the environment, the people close and far, even as simple as school; in everyway all those things were told to and shown that it did not matter, that it will never amount to anything.

Doing what your told regardless was really the main gold of it all, how sad must it has been for you, But we cannot dwell on that too much.

Maybe it was because in my little world I wasn't shown much of ways I could go about showing what was really inside,

My days were very idle, was just doing whatever if you asked me.

Despite the fun I had it didn't came close to when I turned on my TV one day.

It was a sport, I was familiar with it since where am from its very popular, but not like this, not in this way

The pitches were huge and so many people all around but that wasn't the part that got me oh no;

The players that were on the pitch, funny enough it wasn't really a match. Just some players being shown and highlights of what has already happened, but for me it's like I was there.

The way how they tackled, how they passed the ball and oh.......... Oh Oh Oh.... How they Scored. It was sensational, I know that there were Sparks in my eyes and surely enough it mesmerizing to witness such a thing.

But honestly in the end of it all, I was shocked and pondered on how much money so many of these players were receiving. Didn't understand currency much, no surprise there, school wasn't gonna teach you that anyways.

But I could tell that was more that enough money,

I thought about all I could do with money I didn't even knew how much it really was.

I think I thought about that money way too damn much though. But it lit a fire in me to pursue to me what was more than a sport but a way of life.
