Everything Happens for a Reason
I hate sharing my stuff but I can also say that I am equally as disgusted when it come to the thought of having to borrow from someone as well. So I try not to do either to keep my conscious clear. It is not just a figure of speech for me to say “I wouldn’t want to walk a mile in your shoes!!” With that being said I don’t want my baby sister to have to run around in mine either….
My baby sister (15), Leighandra is running track and she is talented. May13th she had the race that would have qualified her to the PA state championships. Top 5 make it and she got 6th in both the 100 and 200. She is a freshman. 4 seniors and a junior finished in front of her and she ran a lot slower than she did the week before! If it sounds like I am defending her it is because I am! I wish she didn’t have to deal with the pressure of filling my shoes. Truth is she’ll prob eventually be better than me. She is her own person and as I have said very talented. I want her to be the best Leighandra Williams she can be and wherever that takes her so be it.
I do want to share whatever knowledge I have that I think would be helpful to help her along but don’t intend to train her or override/undermind those training her now. She doesn’t understand alot about the sport, like the idea of the body gettin tired and not being able to remain in the same condition day in and day out. She also has 2 get her nerves under control. She is so emotional and has yet to grasp the mentality that she needs to have in order to be successful. So to those fans of mine who know her please cut her some slack and be supportive she is developing into a GREAT Williams! Not Lauryn, Leighandra!!!
