Merry Christmas!!!


Saw this bumper sticker all the time and I finally remember to google it online. Yeah... I think this slogan is meaningful no matter who come up with it.

Maybe we should do a step further - Keep Christ Every Day.

Why game!?

Read this today and I wanna share:

6. Our kids should play to have fun, not to win.
Garbage. Taking winning and losing out of sports is like taking the rainbow out of skittles. We need to let kids win and lose because they're going to deal with the emotions that come from succeeding and failing all through their lives, and sports are a great place for them to become familiar with them.

Why sports? Because it's only a game, but the lessons we learn in athletics are universal. Kids need to win because they need to learn how to succeed with grace and humility. So 10 years down the road when they get that coveted promotion over an equally qualified coworker, they handle themselves with class. Similarly, they need to learn how to fail with respect and dignity. They need to be able to put disappoint and rejection in proper perspective for the times later in life when they lose something more than just a game.

Besides, if we didn't keep score at our kids' games, what would we have to yell about from the sidelines?
