forgetting the past
3 years ago
I was a competitive gymnast for six of my adolescent years, and eventhough I learned tons of amazing tricks I ended up resenting it for a number of reasons. My coach who was prone to massive mood swings completely destroyed my self confidence, gymnastics in general gave me no time for a social life, and I slowly grew to fear every cool thing that I had learned to do.
Recently I have begun to rediscover the joy of flips. I’ve started doing flips anywhere I can, I can’t get enough. Now, five years after I quit the sport all I want to do is go back and do it again.
