Gifted Slacker

I’m stupid.

I like approval (who doesn’t). The reason I regret not playing football is all the potential approval I never pursued. The reason I’m torn about rowing is that I’m seeking that approval, and afraid of forsaking that approval.

So I’m not going to row competitively, at least until it becomes something I want to do for my own sake. I may do a learn-to-row program sometime in the future, time and money permitting.

Hopefully this realization will enable me to let go of those regrets about football as well.
