9 DAYS 9 MONTHS TO 13th YEAR WITH SOCCER
Growing up, able to stand on the feet and walking away from
crawling, as a child, many have number of crazy thoughts, a raw passion and
green desire at those times to do infinite things despite being too young to
understand things and when I look back from the time when we crawled, raised ,
grown up into this time ; those were the time where we really discover , groom
our interest and what we really enjoy, what we really are happy with, and
everyone vividly understand that things that got inspired, wanted to do in the
childhood and those young dreams have
been always a bulls’ eye.
I am also one of
those crazy fellows, one of a millions whose childhood dreams and joy still
blossom in heart and desperately want to do. Back to those years of 2002, when
I was a naughty kid, when I even don’t know how to distinguish what I like and
not, from the middle out of millions, I have chosen and always been a
passionate footballer and still a dream to play and move forward become my
simple pleasure even now as a men.
I clearly cut out
that, I don’t really have big dreams, big success like the great one’s but yup
I definitely admit the truth that I have been always looking to write the
journal of my story of getting grown, groomed
to a passionate soccer player.
………………..with the last bell, like from the peak of the
academic building, packing everything, I would rush to the school soccer field
with ball and that too, a ball knitted and produce from the wastes and all. And
I would wait for my friends to turn up and we would always play a random game
and those time, usually a person who can kick high as much as he can was really
considered a big footballer to us and those time’s were really a fun, a days of
crying too; where we fall down and scratch our knees, where we injured our leg
and cry. Not that I was only interested in playing football but I was also
lucky to get good ambiance for learning, an inspiration from my own dad, who
has been always of one my football fan and my brother who would always join me
in playing as he was also one of a ‘dying
fan of footballer’.
Its bit incongruity, usually kid’s sleep early and more
time, but for me I watched late night soccer match with brother and dad, when
my mommy has gone to sleep and it has been most of the time a usual thing for
me and they very next day as soon as I woke up, I would certainly go with the
ball, trying to do some tricks and dribble seen from the Television and it has
been always that way.
In 2002, luckily I got to play a tournament of intra school
match between primary school and that time, the feeling when we get to dress
into a team jersey for the first time is awesome and on the top of the earth
and it was just unforgettable, where it opened me the door to be a simple footballer
and yup playing in the ground of crowd was yet exciting and nervous too,
certainly one of the nostalgic moment of life.
By then as the year passes, everything started getting
better and beautiful. Of all, my dad was also the one who inspired me totally
into this field, where he always love to see my brother and me playing in the
matches and usually whenever he go outside he would bring us football jersey,
boots and all as a gift and it has been always the best days to see my dad cheering,
inspiring and supporting and that very feeling when I get to see a dad cheering
for us (brother and me) out of crowd in playing matches was so touching and
beautiful and in other hand that worry
me was , my mommy never want to see us playing, as she worry too much, as she
care so much and as she never stand to see us injured, scratches everywhere on
the body and bleeding's and came to
understand only at this time upon remember her say “zag pa ma chang sho yeg pa
ma nai, o mai football zong bhi ley na; which literally means to listen to her
say and to understand how much mommy care.
With passing times, despite not too much skills, I was lucky
enough to play as team In all most all school where I did my primary, lower,
middle and higher schooling and yup definitely found a better way in developing
and understanding the free skills and enjoyed playing number of matches and
winning medals and cups too during those times.
By now it’s all most the 13 years of playing soccer and it
has always been the best game of all to me and the part of thing which has
never out grown from me and coming to India here, it has also been a best part
of stuffs in football, where I get a chance to play with number of different
people across the globe and luckily it get a real platform to develop new
skills, discover weakness and implementing and learning to be a good
footballer.
Looking back from the time 2002 to 2014 right now, playing
football, learning football and teaching football has been always the joy that
keeps growing green and having an appetite for football has always been
inspiring in thousands and millions ways. It not only enhance the power of your
skill, satisfy your joys, but It has been always the greatest opportunity in
life to understand the number of people, an opportunity to open the door to
show cast our self a good and passionate footballers and that train our mind
and keep us healthy, Indeed 13 years of playing soccer gave thousand reason’s
to be proud of being passionate footballer and my dream's will never out grown.
"Playing football with feet is one thing, but playing football with heart is another."
